Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Psalms 69:29-31

Psalms 69:29-31. But I am poor, &c. Bishop Hare reads it, “But as for me, though I am low and full of pain,” (Hebrew, כואב , choeeb; rendered, in the plural, they were sore, Genesis 34:25,) “thy salvation, O God, shall protect me.” I will praise, &c. I will not be unmindful of the benefit, but praise thy power and goodness in joyful hymns. This shall please the Lord better than an ox, &c. This sincere and hearty sacrifice of praise is, and shall be, more acceptable to... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Psalms 69:1-36

Psalms 69:0 Undeserved sufferingAs a person sinking in a muddy pit, or someone drowning in swirling floodwaters, so the psalmist fears he is being overwhelmed by his sufferings. No human help is near (1-3). His enemies cruelly injure him, forcing him to suffer for sins that he did not commit (4). He knows he is not sinless, but he also knows that he has tried to live uprightly before God. On the basis of this he cries out to God to rescue him. He does not want his enemies to triumph over him,... read more

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Psalms 69:31

Psalms 69:31. This also shall please the Lord, &c.— i.e. This is the most acceptable sacrifice which can be presented to him; and this shall be used by the Christian church, instead of the sacrifices of the law. The horns and hoofs are mentioned as being conspicuous in an ox going to be sacrificed; being probably gilded, and adorned with flowers, as among the Romans and other people. REFLECTIONS.—1st, We have here, in the suffering son of Jesse, a lively figure of the suffering Son of God,... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Psalms 69:1-36

Psalms 69In this imprecatory psalm of individual lament, David sought God to deliver him from destruction. He was experiencing criticism and rejection from the Israelites because of decisions he had made to do God’s will. He asked God to deal with his oppressors, and he looked forward to relief and the renewal of praise to God. Some scholars have labeled this psalm "indirectly messianic" because, while it does not specifically predict Messiah, Messiah fulfilled what the writer expressed (cf.... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Psalms 69:29-33

Again David asked God to deliver him (cf. Psalms 69:13). Assured of salvation, he vowed to praise the Lord, confident that that would please Him more than animal sacrifices. Bulls with horns and hoofs (Psalms 69:31) were mature animals that made good offerings."There is a note of dry amusement in the glance at horns and hoofs-how useful to God!" [Note: Kidner, p. 248. Cf. Psalms 50:12-15.] When the poor and needy, who also trusted in God as David did, saw God’s deliverance, they would rejoice.... read more

John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 69:1-36

This whole Ps. should be compared with Psalms 22, 31, 35, 38, , 40. It is the prayer of one who is in deep distress, wrongfully persecuted by enemies, and conscious that, though he is sinful, his sufferings are due to his fidelity to God (Psalms 69:1-12). He pleads for deliverance (Psalms 69:13-20) and calls upon God to take the severest vengeance on his adversaries (Psalms 69:21-28). The Ps. closes with a triumphant strain of praise (Psalms 69:29-36). Psalms 69:35 points to a date long after... read more
