SEV Biblia, Chapter 72:6

Descenderá como la lluvia sobre la hierba cortada; como el rocío que destila sobre la tierra.

Clarke's Bible Commentary - Psalms 71:6

Verse 6. He shall come down like rain upon the mown
grass ] The word zg gez, which we translate mown grass, more properly means pastured grass or pastured land; for the dew of the night is intended to restore the grass which has been eaten in the course of the day. This very idea the Chaldee has seized, and renders the place thus: "He shall descend gently, like rain upon the grass which has been eaten by the locust." But there seems to be a reference to the thick night dews which in summer fall on the pasturages, and become the means of restoring the grass consumed in the day-time by the cattle. This is finely expressed by the most accomplished of all poets and agriculturists: - Et quantum longis carpent armenta diebus, Exigua tantum gelidus ros nocte reponet. VIRG. Geor. ii., ver. 201.

"For what the day devours, the nightly dew Shall to the morn by pearly drops renew." DRYDEN.

Or to leave poetry, which always says too much or too little, the plain prose is: ] "And as much as the flocks crop in the long days, So much shall the cold dew restore in one short night." As showers that water the earth. - The influence of the doctrine and Spirit of Christ on the soul of man shall be as grateful, as refreshing, and as fructifying, as the nightly dews on the cropped fields, and the vernal showers on the cultivated lands. Without his influence all tillage is vain; without him there can neither be seed nor fruit.


Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 2-17 - This is a prophecy of the kingdom of Christ; many passages in it cannot be applied to the reign of Solomon. There were righteousness and peac at first in the administration of his government; but, before the en of his reign, there were troubles and unrighteousness. The kingdom her spoken of is to last as long as the sun, but Solomon's was soon at a end. Even the Jewish expositors understood it of the kingdom of the Messiah. Observe many great and precious promises here made, which wer to have full accomplishment only in the kingdom of Christ. As far a his kingdom is set up, discord and contentions cease, in families churches, and nations. The law of Christ, written in the heart disposes men to be honest and just, and to render to all their due; i likewise disposes men to live in love, and so produces abundance of peace. Holiness and love shall be lasting in Christ's kingdom. Throug all the changes of the world, and all the changes of life, Christ' kingdom will support itself. And he shall, by the graces and comfort of his Spirit, come down like rain upon the mown grass; not on that cu down, but that which is left growing, that it may spring again. Hi gospel has been, or shall be, preached to all nations. Though he need not the services of any, yet he must be served with the best. Thos that have the wealth of this world, must serve Christ with it, do goo with it. Prayer shall be made through him, or for his sake; whatever we ask of the Father, should be in his name. Praises shall be offered to him: we are under the highest obligations to him. Christ only shall be feared throughout all generations. To the end of time, and to eternity his name shall be praised. All nations shall call HIM blessed.
