Deuteronomy 32:11

Deu 32:11 As an eagle stirreth up her nest, fluttereth over her young, spreadeth abroad her wings, taketh them, beareth them on her wings:

Ver. 11. As an eagle stirreth up her nest. ] So doth God stir up his people by his word of promise.

Fluttereth over them. ] By the motions of his Spirit, as Genesis 1:2 .

Spreadeth abroad her wings. ] Hovereth and covereth them with his protection. Mat 23:37

Taketh them. ] With much tenderness, but nothing comparable to that of God.

Beareth them on her wings. ] Aquilae pullos suos in alis portant, alites reliqui inter pedes, saith Munster here, out of Rabbi Solomon. See Trapp on " Exo 19:4 "
