Contextual Overview

⁴⁰ How oft dyd they prouoke hym in the wildernes: & greeued hym in the desert? ⁴¹ They turned backe and tempted the Lorde: and prescribed boundes to the most holy [God] of Israel. ⁴² They thought not of his hande: in the day when he redeemed them from the enemie. ⁴³ Howe he had wrought his miracles in Egypt: and his wonders in the fielde of Zoan. ⁴⁴ For he turned into blood their riuers & fluddes: so that they might not drinke. ⁴⁵ He sent amongst them all kind of flyes who dyd eate them: and frogges who destroyed them. ⁴⁶ He gaue their fruites vnto the caterpiller: & their labour to the grashopper. ⁴⁷ He destroyed their vines with hayle stones: and their wilde figge trees with the harde frost. ⁴⁸ He smote their cattell also with haylestones: and their flockes with thunder boltes. ⁴⁹ He cast vpon them the rage of his furie, anger, disdayne, and trouble: by sending foorth euill angels amongst them.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And delivered his strength into captivity,.... That is, the ark, called his strength, and the ark of his strength, Psalms 105:4, because it was a token of his strength, and by means of which he displayed it, as when the Israelites passed through Jordan into Canaan's land, and encompassed the city of Jericho; and besides, it was typical of Christ, the man of God's right hand, made strong for himself, and in whom is strength as well as righteousness for his people; now this was delivered up into the hands of the Philistines, and carried captive, 1 Samuel 4:11. The Targum renders it, "his law", because the two tables of the law were in the ark; so Jarchi interprets it, the ark and the tables:

and his glory into the enemy's hand; which designs the same thing, the ark being the glory of God, over which upon the mercy seat the glorious majesty of the Lord was; hence Phinehas's wife, when she heard the ark was taken, fell into labour, her time being near, and brought forth a son, and called him Ichabod, saying, the glory is departed from Israel, for the ark of God is taken, 1 Samuel 4:21.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

And delivered his strength into captivity - That is, the ark, considered as the symbol of his power. This constituted the defense of the people; this was the emblem of the presence of God, which, when with them, was their real protection. The allusion here is to the time when the ark was taken by the Philistines in the days of Eli. See 1 Samuel 4:3-11.

And his glory - That which was emblematic of his glory, to wit, the ark.

Into the enemy’s hand - The hand or power of the Philistines.
