Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Psalms 7:17

"I will give thanks unto Jehovah according to his righteousness,And will sing praise to Jehovah Most High."It is of great interest here that the true God is designated as Most High. Yes, it is true that the pagans of Palestine so designated one of their false deities, but "in the Bible" the term has no other application than the one evident here. It belongs to the true God and Creator of all things. Melchizedek was a priest of "God Most High" (Genesis 14:17-24); and in the few verses where he... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Psalms 7:1-17

Psalms 7In the title, "shiggaion" probably means a poem with intense feeling. [Note: A. F. Kirkpatrick, Psalms, p. xx; Ross, p. 796.] Cush, the Benjamite, received no other mention elsewhere in the Bible. The Benjamites were, of course, King Saul’s relatives who were hostile to David before and after David became king.David prayed for deliverance from his enemies on the ground that he was innocent, and he asked God to vindicate him by judging them. Elements of an individual lament (Psalms... read more

5. Promise to praise 7:17David closed his psalm with a vow to thank and praise God for His righteousness."The attribute of God’s righteousness is what he does or will do on behalf of his own." [Note: VanGemeren, p. 106.] Even though God had not yet vindicated him, David’s reflection on the character and activities of the Lord encouraged this psalmist to believe that He would do so at the proper time. He described God as the "Most High," a title used three times in this psalm in the NIV (Psalms... read more

John Dummelow

John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 7:1-17

This Ps. is an appeal to God as the righteous Judge against an ungrateful and vindictive enemy. Nothing is known of Cush the Benjamite, but the case of Shimei affords a parallel to the circumstances here referred to (2 Samuel 18:21). The absenee of any Scripture mention of Cush makes it all the more probable that the title of this Ps. is genuine, and not invented. The Psalmist asserts his own innocence (Psalms 7:1-6), calls on God, the righteous Judge of all the earth, to exercise His power... read more

William Nicoll

Expositor's Bible Commentary - Psalms 7:1-17

Psalms 7:1-17THIS is the only psalm with the title "Shiggaion." The word occurs only here and in Habakkuk 3:1, where it stands in the plural, and with the preposition "upon," as if it designated instruments. The meaning is unknown, and commentators, who do not like to say so, have much ado to find one. The root is a verb, "to wander," and the explanation is common that the word describes the disconnected character of the psalm, which is full of swiftly succeeding emotions rather than of sequent... read more

Psalms 7:0 1. Confidence and prayer (Psalms 7:1-2 ) 2. Unjust persecution (Psalms 7:3-5 ) 3. Arise Jehovah! (Psalms 7:6-10 ) 4. God’s dealings in government (Psalms 7:11-16 ) 5. Thanksgiving (Psalms 7:17 ) Psalms 7:1-2 . It has been suggested that over this Psalm should be written the sentence, “Shall not the judge of all the earth do right?” David appealed to God to judge His cause, that a righteous God cannot but save the righteous and judge the wicked. David sang this unto the Lord... read more

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Psalms 7:1-17

The length of our lessons in this book are determined rather arbitrarily by the length of the different psalms, or the special interest found in them. We have in mind weekly classes wishing to study the whole Bible in a connected way, and yet avoid tediousness in the process. The six psalms included in the last lesson might easily be read by the class in a week; and on the Lord’s Day, the teacher with the assistance of the questions, would have little difficulty in fastening the facts and their... read more
