PREVIOUS CHAPTER - NEXT CHAPTER - HELP
1 This psalm contains sundry prayers, praises, and
professions of obedience.
- A.M. 3560. B.C. 444. (Title.)
This Psalm, which was probably composed by Ezra, is another of
the alphabetical Psalms: it consists of twenty-two parts,
answering to the number of the Hebrew letters; every part
being divided into eight verses, and each verse beginning with
that letter which forms the title of the part; that is, the
first part of eight verses with [Aleph,] the second with
[Byth,] etc. It is an elegant, important, and useful
composition; the chief subjects of which are the excellence of
God's laws, and the happiness of those who observe them.

pestilential, and destructive nature of sin.

VERSE 83
- like a bottle in the smoke.
As the bottles in the East are made of skin, it is evident
that one of these hung up in the smoke must soon be parched,
shrivelled up, lose all its strength, and become unsightly and
useless. Thus the Psalmist appeared to himself to have become
useless and despicable, through the exhausted state of his
body and mind, by long bodily afflictions and mental distress.

* Ps 7:6 Re 6:10,11
VERSE 85
- The proud.
This metaphor is taken from the mode in which wild beasts are
caught in the East: deep pits are dug in the earth, and
slightly covered over with reeds, turf, etc., so as not to be
discerned from the solid ground; and the animals attempting to
walk over them, the surface breaks, they fall in, and are
taken alive. Thus the Psalmist's enemies employed craft as
well as power in order to effect his ruin.
