시편 26:1 KRV

Expositor's Bible Commentary - Psalms 26:1-12

Psalms 26:1-12THE image of "the way" which is characteristic of Psalms 25:1-22 reappears in a modified form in this psalm, which speaks of "walking in integrity" and truth and of "feet standing in an even place." Other resemblances to the preceding psalm are the use of "redeem," "be merciful"; the references to God’s lovingkindness and truth, in which the psalmist walks, and to his own integrity. These similarities may or may not indicate common authorship, but probably guided the compilers in... read more

Arno Gaebelein's Annotated Bible - Psalms 26:1-12

Psalms 26:0 An Appeal on Account of Righteousness 1. Pleading integrity (Psalms 26:1-5 ) 2. Separated unto the Lord (Psalms 26:6-8 ) 3. Be gracious unto Me (Psalms 36:9-12 ) Psalms 26:1-5 . The opening verses remind us of the First Psalm and well may we put these words into the lips of the perfect man, who walked in integrity and was separate from sinners. Here we find no confessions of sin, no pleadings for forgiveness, but instead an avowal of conscious uprightness and separation from... read more

26:1 [[A Psalm] of David.] Judge me, {a} O LORD; for I have walked in mine integrity: I have trusted also in the LORD; [therefore] I shall not slide.(a) He flees to God to be the judge of his just cause, seeing there is no equity among men. read more

James Gray

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Psalms 26:1-12

Psalms 25:0 In the Hebrew this prayer is arranged as an acrostic, i.e., the first word of each verse begins with a letter in alphabetical order from A-to-Z. Hereafter we shall not give as much attention to every psalm as we have thus far, but trust the reader to do the analyzing after the examples given. The purpose of this book is not so much textual explanation as a stimulus to Bible study in a broader sense, and it is assumed that the reader has been studying the Bible side by side with the... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Psalms 26:1

CONTENTS Under the spirit of prophecy, the Psalmist in this Psalm describes the Lord Jesus as his church's representative, making an appeal to God's justice, in the consciousness of his own integrity. He implores deliverance from unjust accusation, and closeth with praises. A Psalm of David. Psalms 26:1 That the Lord Jesus Christ, and not David, is the person here to be kept in view, is most evident, not only from the expressions contained in what is here said, but also from the general tenor... read more

George Haydock

George Haydock's Catholic Bible Commentary - Psalms 26:1

Anointed. Hebrew has only, David. The rest of the title occurs only in some copies of the Septuagint, (Eusebius; Calmet) and is not of divine authority. Yet if any attention be paid to it, we must suppose that David composed this psalm before his second anointing, as he speaks of great dangers. But this is all uncertain. (Berthier) --- For dangers threatened David even after he had been declared king. (Haydock) --- Before Samuel anointed him, he was not endued with the spirit of prophecy. See 1... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Psalms 26:1-12

Prayer of One Persecuted without Cause. A psalm of David, who probably composed this hymn when he himself was suffering persecution, being obliged to flee before Absalom. The contents of this psalm, however, apply to many situations in the lives of all children of God. v. 1. Judge me, O God, declaring him righteous by a judicial sentence, deciding in his favor, and thereby setting aside the false accusations of the enemies; for I have walked in mine integrity, in purity of heart, free from... read more

Frederick Brotherton Meyer

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Psalms 26:1-12

a Declaration of Loyalty to God Psalms 26:1-12 In some respects this psalm resembles the previous one, only, instead of entreaties for forgiveness, there are protestations of innocence. It may have been composed during Absalom’s rebellion, and contains a strenuous protest against the dissembling and hypocrisy upon which that revolt was based. In these avowals of conscious rectitude, it should be borne in mind that David did not mean to claim absolute sinlessness, but rather to declare his... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Psalms 26:1-12

The central word of the song may be said to be, “So will I compass Thine altar, O Jehovah” (v.. Psa 26:6 ). On either side conditions of worship are described. First the conditions of personal life necessary to worship (vv. Psa 26:1-6 ). Afterwards the true exercise of worship is described (vv. Psa 26:7-8 ). Then the psalm becomes a prayer for preparation (vv. Psa 26:9-11 ); and ends with the declaration of assurance (v.. Psa 26:12 ). As to conditions of personal life fitting for worship,... read more
