F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Psalms 35:1-17

Rescuing the Poor and Needy Psalms 35:1-17 This psalm dates from the Sauline persecution, or else from the disturbed condition of the kingdom in David’s later years. Each of the three divisions into which the psalm naturally falls ends with praise, Psalms 35:9 ; Psalms 35:18 ; Psalms 35:28 . Throughout the psalm we meet with strong imprecations on the wicked. The spirit of the New Testament inculcates a higher law of love and forgiveness, Luke 9:55-56 . Therefore our Lord rebuked His... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Psalms 35:1-28

There is agony in this song. The singer is sore beset with enemies. They are striving with him, fighting against him. They are plotting against him, treacherously spreading a net for his feet. He cries out to Jehovah for help, vowing that he will offer praise for deliverance (verses Psa 35:1-10 ). The singer touches deeper depths. The cruelty and oppression are being shown by those whom in the past he has befriended. In their time of trouble he had mourned with them. In the day of his halting... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 35:11-16

Brought Before the Judges He Is Questioned About Crimes Of Which He Knows Nothing, And That By Those To Whom He Had Shown Nothing But Kindness Who Are Now Determined To Bring Him Down (Psalms 35:11-16 ). The scene now changes to the court room. He is asked questions about crimes of which he knows nothing, and that in the face of hostile and false witnesses. And the very men who are doing it are those for whom in the past he has shown great concern. They are rewarding him evil for good. Psalms... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 35:1-28

XXXV. Prayer against Treacherous Foes by One who is “ quiet in the land.” Psalms 35:6 b should replace Psalms 35:5 b. Chaff driven before the wind may well suggest the image of the angel pursuing the foe— but not that of pushing or thrusting. Psalms 35:7 . Read, “ Without a cause have they hid for me their net: without a cause have they dug a pit for my life.” Psalms 35:9 f. “ Soul” and “ bones” stand for the whole person. Psalms 35:12 b. The text cannot be right. “ Laying snares for my soul... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Psalms 35:12

For good; for the good offices which did to divers of them when I had favour and power in Saul’s court and camp. To the spoiling of my soul, i.e. to the stripping of my person of all my comforts and hopes, and of my life itself. read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Psalms 35:1-28

INTRODUCTION“This psalm, If It be as the inscription tells us a psalm of David, must have been composed either during his persecution by Saul or during the revolt of Absalom. It is usual to connect it with his words in 1 Samuel 24:15. Its peculiar feature is, that the enemies on whom the poet imprecates the righteous judgments of God are men who had formerly been his friends, men for whom he had prayed in their sorrow’ with a brother’s heart,’ and who now requited his love with ungrateful... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Psalms 35:1-25

Psalms 35:1-28 Psalms 35:1-28 :Plead my cause, O LORD, with them that strive with me: fight against them that fight against me. Take hold of shield and buckler, stand up for my help. Draw out also the spear, and stop the way against them that persecute me: say unto my soul, I am thy salvation. Let them be confounded and put to shame that seek after my soul: let them be turned back and brought to confusion that devise my hurt ( Psalms 35:1-4 ).So this is one of those psalms where David is... read more

Joseph Sutcliffe

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Psalms 35:1-28

Psalms 35:1 . Fight against them. This is another martial ode, or war song, in which David prays for victory over the army of Saul that came to fight against him, and for confusion to those about the king who daily slandered him. Thus we also pray against enemies. REFLECTIONS. The argument to this psalm, as in Psalms 26:0., is an invocation to God against the injustice of Saul and his court, who long pursued David with the sword. Under slander and implicated wrongs he appeals to that bar... read more

John Trapp Complete Commentary - Psalms 35:12

Psa 35:12 They rewarded me evil for good [to] the spoiling of my soul. Ver. 12. They rewarded me evil for good ] To render good for evil is divine, good for good is human, evil for evil is brutish; but evil for good is devilish. To the spoiling of my soul ] i.e. To the depriving me of that life which I have so often hazarded to save theirs. Intentant caedem (Kimchi). Or, this their devilish dealing with me, erat mihi quasi mors amarum, was as bitter as death to me. read more
