Commentary on Deuteronomy 33:12

Theological / Devotional

Benjamin. The child of his father’s old age, whom he loved.

Dwell between his shoulders. That is, to be carried on His back, or protected. God would protect Benjamin. Some commentators refer these words to the ridges of the territory of Benjamin (see Joshua 15:8; 18:13), and speak of Jerusalem as being in his territory.
