The Pulpit Commentary - Psalms 76:8

Thou didst cause judgment to be heard from heaven. By the destruction of Sennacherib's host, God spoke, as it were, with a voice of thunder, to the whole earth. He delivered a "judgment," or a "sentence" (Revised Version), which could not be ignored. The earth feared, and was still. All the world, i.e. all the Oriental world, feared.

The Pulpit Commentary - Psalms 76:9

When God arose to judgment (see the preceding verses). God's "rising" is an anthropomorphism, drawn from the tact that men "rise up" when they proceed to take vengeance (comp. Psalms 3:7 ; Psalms 7:6 ; Psalms 44:26 ; Psalms 68:1 , etc.). To save all the meek of the earth . God's vengeances on the wicked are, in great measure, for the relief of the righteous. Sennacherib's discomfiture relieved "the meek of the earth," i.e. not only Israel, but many other downtrodden and oppressed... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Psalms 76:9

With God judgment is salvation. "When God arose to judgment, to save all the meek of the earth." The "meek" are those who, with Hezekiah, held fast their integrity to Jehovah, and yet seemed placed in circumstances of hopeless distress. God's judgment on Sennacherib was their vindication, deliverance, and uplifting. Compare the destruction of Pharaoh's host at the Red Sea. God's judgment on the Egyptians was God's salvation of his people. It may even be established as the recognized... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Psalms 76:9

When God arose to judgment - That is, when he came to overthrow and destroy the enemies of his people, as referred to in the former part of the psalm.To save all the meek of the earth - Of the land - to wit, the land of Judea; or, to save his people when in affliction.

The earth feared, and was still The effect of this terrible judgment was, that the rest of the world was afraid to invade or disturb the land and people of Israel; and chose rather to be still and stay quietly in their own territories. When God Who had long suffered their insolence; arose to judgment To execute judgment upon his enemies, and the... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Psalms 76:1-12

Psalms 75-76 Exalting God, not selfIn a psalm designed for use in public worship, the congregation begins by thanking God for all his mighty deeds (75:1). A singer representing God replies that even when conditions in the world look hopeless, God is still in control. He will intervene when he sees fit (2-3). Therefore, the wicked should not be proud or stubborn like an ox that struggles against its master (4-5). The only exaltation that matters is that which comes from God. The opinions of... read more
