Psalm 62
Ps 62:1-12.
To Jeduthun--(See on
Ps 39:1,
title). The general tone of this Psalm is expressive of confidence in
God. Occasion is taken to remind the wicked of their sin, their ruin,
and their meanness.
1. waiteth--literally, "is silent," trusts submissively and confidently
as a servant.
2. The titles applied to God often occur
(Ps 9:9; 18:2).
be greatly moved--
(Ps 10:6).
No injury shall be permanent, though devised by enemies.
3. Their destruction will come; as a tottering wall they already
are feeble and failing.
bowing wall shall ye be--better supply "are." Some propose to apply
these phrases to describe the condition of "a man"--that is, the pious
suffer: thus, "Will ye slay him," &c.; but the other is a good sense.
4. his excellency--or, elevation to which God had raised him
(Ps 4:2).
This they try to do by lies and duplicity
(Ps 5:9).
5, 6. (Compare
Ps 62:1, 2).
6. not be moved--not at all; his confidence has increased.
7. rock of my strength--or strongest support
(Ps 7:10; 61:3).
8. pour out your heart--give full expression to feeling
(1Sa 1:15;
Job 30:16;
Ps 42:4).
ye people--God's people.
9. No kind of men are reliable, compared with God
(Isa 2:22;
Jer 17:5).
altogether--alike, one as the other
(Ps 34:3).
10. Not only are oppression and robbery, which are wicked means of
wealth, no grounds of boasting; but even wealth, increasing lawfully,
ought not to engross the heart.
11. once; twice--(as in
Job 33:14; 40:5),
are used to give emphasis to the sentiment. God's power is tempered by
His mercy, which it also sustains.
12. for thou renderest--literally, "that Thou renderest," &c.,
connected with "I heard this," as the phrase--"that power," &c.
[Ps 62:11]
--teaching that by His power He can show both mercy and justice.
