SEV Biblia, Chapter 42:6
¶ Dios mío, mi alma está en mí abatida; por tanto me acordaré de ti desde la tierra del Jordán, y de los hermonitas, desde el monte de Mizar.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Psalms 41:6
Verse 6. O my God, my soul is cast down ] It is impossible for me to lighten this load; I am full of discouragements, notwithstanding I labour to hope in thee. Therefore untill I remember thee from the land of Jordan ] That is, from Judea, this being the chief river of that country.
And of the Hermonites ] µynwmrh the Hermons, used in the plural because Hermon has a double ridge joining in an angle, and rising in many summits. The river Jordan, and the mountains of Hermon, were the most striking features of the holy land.
From the hill Mizar. ] r[xm rhm mehar mitsar, from the little hill, as in the margin. The little hill probably means Sion, which was little in comparison of the Hermons. - Bishop Horsley. No such hill as Mizar is known in India.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 6-11 - The way to forget our miseries, is to remember the God of our mercies David saw troubles coming from God's wrath, and that discouraged him But if one trouble follow hard after another, if all seem to combin for our ruin, let us remember they are all appointed and overruled by the Lord. David regards the Divine favour as the fountain of all the good he looked for. In the Saviour's name let us hope and pray. On word from him will calm every storm, and turn midnight darkness int the light of noon, the bitterest complaints into joyful praises. Ou believing expectation of mercy must quicken our prayers for it. A length, is faith came off conqueror, by encouraging him to trust in the name of the Lord, and to stay himself upon his God. He adds, And m God; this thought enabled him to triumph over all his griefs and fears Let us never think that the God of our life, and the Rock of ou salvation, has forgotten us, if we have made his mercy, truth, an power, our refuge. Thus the psalmist strove against his despondency: a last his faith and hope obtained the victory. Let us learn to check all unbelieving doubts and fears. Apply the promise first to ourselves, an then plead it to God __________________________________________________________________
