Verse explanation
Chariots and horses were the most advanced military technology of the time, used mainly by larger neighboring armies like Egypt's. Saying he trusts in the name of the Lord rather than chariots and horses is a declaration that military strength is not the real source of security.
From the Psalms 20 study in Bible in Stories.
