Peter Pett

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 22:22-31

He Comes Out Of His Situation In Triumph Because of The Kingly Rule of God (Psalms 22:22-31 ). The Psalmist now rejoiced in the deliverance of the one about whom he has been speaking. For the result is to be that all the ends of the earth will seek YHWH and His Kingly Rule will be established over the nations. It is clear therefore that in the end the one who is in mind is the coming King who will rule over the everlasting kingdom. Psalms 22:22 ‘I will declare your name to my brothers, In the... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 22:29

‘All the fat ones of the earth will eat and worship. All those who go down to the dust will bow before Him, even he who cannot keep his soul alive.’ In His presence all are equal. Both those who prosper and those who can hardly keep themselves alive and are near death (in other words men of every kind and situation) will look to YHWH for life, partaking of His sacrifice of Himself, and will worship Him. read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 22:1-31

XXII. This Ps. (p. 372) consists of two parts. In Psalms 22:1-Ecclesiastes : a godly man in deep and manifold distress complains that the God of his fathers, the God who has been with him from the beginning, has deserted him (see p. 372). Psalms 22:22-Obadiah : is a liturgical addition: it expresses the pious Israelite’ s gratitude for Israel’ s glory, which is to be acknowledged even by the heathen. No attempt is made to bridge the gulf between the despair of Psalms 22:1-Ecclesiastes : and... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Psalms 22:29

All, i.e. many of them, as the word all is oft used, as Psalms 72:11; Matthew 3:5; Matthew 17:11; Luke 6:26; John 3:26; 2 Timothy 3:9. They that be fat upon earth, i.e. kings and princes, and the great men of the world, who are oft described by this metaphor, as Psalms 78:31; Isaiah 10:16; compare Job 15:27; Psalms 17:10; Psalms 73:7; whose conversion to Christ is also foretold in other places, as Psalms 45:12; Psalms 72:10,Psalms 72:11; Isaiah 60:3,Isaiah 60:5,Isaiah 60:10; 1 Timothy 2:1, 2... read more

Joseph Exell

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Psalms 22:1-31

INTRODUCTION“The subject of this psalm is the deliverance of a righteous sufferer from his enemies, and the effect of this deliverance on others. It is so framed as to be applied without violence to any case belonging to the class described, yet so that it was fully verified only in Christ, the Head and Representative of the class in question. The immediate speaker in the psalm is an ideal person, the righteous servant of Jehovah, but his words may, to a certain extent, be appropriated by any... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Psalms 22:1-31

Psalms 22:1-31 Psalms 22:1-31 is one of those prophetic psalms which stands out probably among all of the Messianic psalms. This psalm is again a psalm of David, and it is a very graphic description of death by crucifixion. Now, at the time that David wrote this, stoning was the method of capital punishment. Actually, it was almost 1000 years later that crucifixion was introduced by the Romans as a form of capital punishment. So that David would describe death by crucifixion is sort of a... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Psalms 22:1-31

Psalms 22:1 . My God, my God. The LXX, Ο Θεος ο Θεος μου . The Chaldaic is like the English. The Hebrew forms the superlative degree by repetition. Example: “The heaven, and the heaven of heavens cannot contain thee.” The Lord called Abraham, Abraham; and again at the bush, Moses, Moses. When the Saviour became our covert, and received the storm of anger against a guilty world, his suffering humanity offered up strong cries and tears to God in these sublime words, Why hast thou forsaken... read more

Psalms 22:1-31My God, my God, why hast Thou forsaken me?The prophetic image of the Prince of sufferersWho is the sufferer whose wail is the very voice of desolation and despair, and who yet dares to believe that the tale of his sorrow will be a gospel for the world? The usual answers are given. The title ascribes the authorship to David, and is accepted by Delitzsch and others. Hengstenberg and his followers see in the picture the ideal righteous man. Others think of Hezekiah or Jeremiah, with... read more

The Biblical Illustrator - Psalms 22:29

Psalms 22:29None can keep alive his own soul. Life’s need and maintenanceBegin by noting the connection; then take text in a spiritual meaning.I. The inner life must be sustained by God. None of us can make his own soul live, nor can we keep it alive. Old Christians cannot, more than young ones. At no time or place, however sacred, can we do this. The analogies of nature, which show that repeated, continued help must be given, tell us of our constant need of fresh grace. Experience asserts the... read more
