Adam Clarke's Bible Commentary Verse 2. Let them be turned backward ] They are coming in a body against me. Lord, stop their progress!
Matthew Henry Commentary
- The speedy destruction of the wicked, and the preservation of the godly.
--This psalm is almost the same as the last five verses of Ps 40. Whil here we behold Jesus Christ set forth in poverty and distress, we als see him denouncing just and fearful punishment on his Jewish, heathen and antichristian enemies; and pleading for the joy and happiness of his friends, to his Father's honour. Let us apply these things to ou own troubled circumstances, and in a believing manner bring them, an the sinful causes thereof, to our remembrance. Urgent trials shoul always awake fervent prayers _________________________________________________
