Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Psalms 60:9

PLEADING WITH GOD TO HELP"Who will bring me into the strong city?Who hath led me unto Edom?Hast not thou, O God, cast us off?.And thou goest not forth, O God, with our hosts.Give us help against the adversary;For vain is the help of man.""Who will bring me into the strong city" (Psalms 60:9)? The `strong city' here is Petra, the almost impregnable capital of Edom. No city of antiquity was ever any better fortified and protected than was Petra. The city occupied a canyon bounded by solid stone... read more

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Psalms 60:7-8

Psalms 60:7-8. Gilead is mine, &c.— He exultingly surveys his strength. Gilead and Manasseh comprehended the whole country beyond Jordan, as did Ephraim and Judah on this side; of which Ephraim, containing the main body of tribes, is here said to be the strength of his head; i.e. the guard of his person: [Achish told David that he would make him the keeper of his head.] The main bulk of the strength lay in Ephraim. Judah was his minister, or secretary of state, as that was the reigning... read more

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Psalms 60:9

Psalms 60:9. Who will bring me, &c.— Dr. Delaney observes, that David, having promised himself, in a prophetic rapture, the dominion over Moab and Edom, considered himself as that rod which should rise out of Israel, and smite the corners of Moab, and make Edom a possession, Numbers 24:17. And what king but David subdued the haughty Philistines, conquered Moab first, and Edom after? And when could this prophesy be written, but in the beginning of his reign; when the Philistines were... read more

8. Moab—is a my washpot—the most ordinary vessel. over—or, "at" Edom—(as a slave) he casts his shoe. Philistia, triumph, &c.—or, rather, "shout." for me—acknowledges subjection (compare Psalms 108:9, "over Philistia will I triumph"). read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Psalms 60:1-12

Psalms 60The occasion for this national (communal) lament psalm was Israel’s victory over the Arameans and the Edomites (cf. 2 Samuel 8:13; 1 Kings 11:15-16; 1 Chronicles 18:12). Naharaim (lit. rivers) and Zobah were regions in Aram. In this battle, Joab was responsible for defeating 12,000 Edomites (2 Samuel 8:13). Joab’s brother Abishai was the field commander, and the writer of Chronicles gave him the credit for the victory (1 Chronicles 18:12).This is a didactic psalm according to the... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Psalms 60:8

Moab would serve God as a washbasin; namely, it would be reduced to the status of a servant. God’s people would experience purification there as they fought this neighbor. God would throw His shoe toward Edom as a man threw his shoe toward his servant when he came home. Evidently this was commonly done in the ancient Near East. The Edomites, like the Moabites, were God’s servants, not His sons in the same sense that the Israelites were. The NIV’s translation, "Over Philistia I shout in... read more

David was confident in view of God’s promises to subdue Israel’s enemies and give her the Promised Land. He would lead the Israelites to ultimate victory, even though He had allowed them to suffer immediate defeat. read more
