The Pulpit Commentary - Psalms 7:3

O Lord my God, if I have done this ; i.e. "this which is laid to my charge." The general charge against David in Saul's lifetime was that he "sought the king's hurt" ( 1 Samuel 24:9 ). Afterwards he was accused of being "a bloody man" ( 2 Samuel 16:8 )—the death of Ishbosheth, and perhaps of others, being regarded as his work. If there be iniquity in my hands. If, i.e; I have committed any criminal act, if any definite offence can be charged against me. Human weakness and... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Psalms 7:3

Purity of heart. "If I have done this." I. TRUE INNOCENCE IS MARKED BY HUMILITY . David is bold before men, but humble before God. Why? There is the sense that innocence is limited and imperfect. We may be free from particular sins, and yet be guilty in others. Besides, innocence is but comparative. Measured by the standard of men, we may be without offence, but tried by the holy, spiritual Law of God, we are convicted of innumerable sins, and behind all is a sinful heart. ... read more

Psalms 7:2. Lest he That is, mine enemy, as it is expressed, Psalms 7:4. The singular number here used, evidently proves that one particular enemy is referred to, whom some suppose to be the great enemy and accuser, whose agents and tools wicked men are. But it is much more probable that either Saul or one of his followers is intended; tear my soul Out of my body: or destroy me and my life, for soul sometimes signifies the life, of which it is the principle, and sometimes the person... read more

Psalms 7:3. O Lord, if I have done this Which Cush and others falsely lay to my charge; if there be iniquity in my hands In my actions, the hand being often put for actions whereof it is a great instrument: “David here makes a solemn appeal to God, the searcher of hearts, as judge of his innocence, with regard to the particular crime laid to his charge. Any person, when slandered, may do the same. But Christ only could call upon Heaven to attest his universal uprightness.” Horne. read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Psalms 7:1-17

Psalms 7:0 Against Cush, a BenjaminiteDuring the reign of Saul, David won much fame for himself. Saul became jealous and attempted to murder David. When David escaped, Saul pursued him cruelly, being urged on by a group of zealous courtiers (probably from Saul’s tribe of Benjamin), who accused David of plotting to overthrow the king (1 Samuel 18:22-26; 1 Samuel 22:7; 1 Samuel 24:9; 1 Samuel 26:19; cf. 2 Samuel 16:5; 2 Samuel 20:1).The time was one of considerable suffering and temptation for... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Psalms 7:3

"O Jehovah my God, if I have done this;If there be iniquity in my hands;If I have rewarded evil unto him that was at peace with me(Yea, I have delivered him that without cause was mine adversary);Let the enemy pursue my soul and overtake it;Yea, let him tread my life down to the earth,And lay my glory in the dust. (Selah)"Notice the triple "if" in Psalms 7:3-5. This format was typical of what was called The Oath of Clearance which is mentioned in 1 Kings 8:31-32. When one was accused, he could... read more

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Psalms 7:2

Psalms 7:2. Lest he tear my soul— The singular here evidently proves that one particular enemy is referred to; Fenwick supposes it to mean the great enemy and accuser, whose agents and tools wicked men are. Soul sometimes signifies life itself, of which it is the principle; and sometimes it implies the person himself; both which senses are agreeable to this place. read more
