诗篇 73:4 RCUVSS

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Psalms 73:4

Psalms 73:4. For there are no bands in their death They are not violently dragged to an untimely death, either by the hand and sentence of the magistrate, which yet they deserve, or by any sudden and unexpected stroke of Divine Providence, like the fruit forced from the tree before it is ripe, but are left to hang on, till, through old age, they gently drop off themselves. Hebrew, אין חרצבות , een chartzuboth, There are no pangs, anguish, or agonies, in their death; they are not afflicted... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Psalms 73:1-28

Psalms 73:0 Why do the wicked prosper?Asaph had a problem that almost caused him to give up the life of devotion to God. If God was a God of goodness who helped the righteous and opposed the wicked, why did worthless people prosper while Asaph suffered want (1-3)?It seemed to Asaph that the wicked enjoyed lives of ease and plenty, then died peacefully without suffering. Yet their lives had been characterized by pride, cruelty, greed, trickery, scorn, oppression and boasting (4-9). Some of the... read more

III. BOOK 3: CHS. 73-89A man or men named Asaph wrote 11 of the psalms in this book (Psalms 73-83). Other writers were the sons of Korah (Psalms 84-85, 87), David (Psalms 86), Heman (Psalms 88), and Ethan (Psalms 89). Asaph, Heman, and Ethan were musicians from the tribe of Levi who were contemporaries of David. Book 3 of the Psalter has been called its "dark book." [Note: Waltke, p. 886.] Psalms 73In this psalm, Asaph related his inner mental struggle when he compared his life, as one... read more

The writer next described the ways the wicked behave. They seem more carefree (Psalms 73:4-5), proud and violent (Psalms 73:6), as well as unrestrained (Psalms 73:7). They speak proudly (Psalms 73:8-9), lead others after themselves (Psalms 73:10), and act as if God does not care how they live (Psalms 73:11; cf. Psalms 94:7). With few cares, they continue to prosper (Psalms 73:12; cf. Psalms 73:4-5). read more

John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 73:1-28

This, like Psalms 37, 49, and the book of Job, deals with the perplexing problempresented to thoughtful minds by the prosperity of the wicked and the sufferings of the righteous. The Psalmist has been deeply exercised by this question (Psalms 73:2-14), and after struggling with doubt (Psalms 73:15-16) has learned in the sanctuary of God to understand the end of the wicked (Psalms 73:17-20), and to repent of his own unbelieving thoughts (Psalms 73:21-22). He has found rest in the conviction that... read more

John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 73:1-52

Book 3There are two groups of Pss. in this book, Psalms 73-83 being Psalms of Asaph, and Psalms 84-88 (except 86) Psalms of the Sons of Korah. The likeness of the title of Psalms 89 to that of Psalms 88 suggests that it belongs to the same group. The Sons of Asaph and the Sons of Korah were guilds of singers connected with the second Temple (2 Chronicles 20:19; Ezra 2:41; Nehemiah 7:44), and these groups of Pss. belong to collections made by them for the Temple services.The Psalms of Asaph,... read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Psalms 73:4

(4) For there are no bands in their death.—This is quite unintelligible, and does not fairly render the Hebrew, which gives, For there are no bands to their death. And by analogy of the derivation of tormenta from tor queo, we might give the Hebrew word bands the sense of pangs, rendering, “they have a painless death,” if such a statement about the wicked were not quite out of keeping with the psalm. The ancient versions give us no help. Some emendation of the text is absolutely necessary. In... read more

Until I Went Into the Sanctuary Psalms 73:15-16 The difficulty of the writer of the Psalm is a very old difficulty, and yet it seems to us to be perpetually new. Think what it was that troubled him. What was his difficulty? 'I was envious when I saw the ungodly in such prosperity. They come in no misfortune like other men, neither are they plagued like other folk.' At what period of the world's history, in what spot of the universe, are the echoes of that question not still heard? The... read more
