Isaiah 33:22 For the LORD is our judge, the LORD is our lawgiver, the LORD is our king; he will save us. Two distinct benefits stand out as soon as we compare the condition of Israel under the judges with that under King David and King Solomon. Under the king was obtained — 1. Unity. One nation with one national life, instead of isolated tribes living under their own judges, and having little cohesion with the other tribes. 2. Salvation from their enemies, and prosperity at home.
