Luke14:31
With ten thousand to meet, &c. Whether he will be able, with the forces which he has, to meet his enemy. Christ here perhaps intends to denote that the enemies which we have to encounter in following him are many and strong, and that our strength is comparatively feeble.
To meet him. To contend with him. To gain a victory over him.
(a) "consulteth whether" Prov 20:18
