诗篇 60:11-12 RCUVSS

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 60:6-12

6-12 If Christ be ours, all things, one way or another, shall be for our eternal good. The man who is a new creature in Christ, may rejoice in all the precious promises God has spoken in his holiness. His present privileges, and the sanctifying influences of the Spirit, are sure earnests of heavenly glory. David rejoices in conquering the neighbouring nations, which had been enemies to Israel. The Israel of God are through Christ more than conquerors. Though sometimes they think that the Lord... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Psalms 60:1-12

Cheth. True Piety the Calling of the Believers. v. 57. Thou art my Portion, O Lord; I have said that I would keep Thy words. To realize at all times that God is his Portion, his Inheritance, and that for that reason he intends to observe the words of the Lord, this is the calling of the faithful, in this everyone who is a child of God fulfils his destiny. v. 58. I entreated Thy favor, literally, "I appealed with supplications to Thy face," with my whole heart, begging for a manifestation... read more

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Psalms 60:1-12

Prayer for Help against Foes Psalms 60:1-12 This was a national psalm to be taught the people. See title; also Deuteronomy 31:19 . A strong coalition had been formed against David at that time. See 2 Samuel 10:6 ; 2 Samuel 10:8 ; 2 Samuel 10:17 ; 2 Samuel 10:19 ; 1 Chronicles 18:12-15 . Israel was threatened with disaster. It was as if an earthquake had rent the soil. But the king-psalmist argued that God had given His people a mission in the world, which could not be forfeited. First,... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Psalms 60:1-12

This is a song out of defeat. It may be divided into three parts. The first is a recognition of the cause of defeat, ending with a prayer (verses Psa 60:1-5 ). The second expresses the answer of God in the soul of the singer (verses Psa 60:6-8 ). In the third there is a note of helplessness, a cry of need, and a cry of confidence. In the midst of an evidently disastrous defeat, the singer recognizes the government of God. His appeal for help is based on his recognition of the true vocation of... read more

James Nisbet's Church Pulpit Commentary - Psalms 60:12

‘GOD IS OUR REFUGE AND OUR STRENGTH’‘Through God we shall do valiantly.’Psalms 60:12This is a national psalm to be taught to the people ( Deuteronomy 31:19). As 44 was sung by the sons of Korah when the Edomites were taking advantage of David’s absence to invade the land, so this psalm was composed after victory had been assured. Shushaneduth means the lily of testimony, and may refer to the name of the tune to which this psalm was set. Aram is Syrians: the Syrians which dwelt between the... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 60:9-12

David Declares His Assurance That Although God Has Appeared For A While To Have Abandoned His People, He Will Now Arise And Enable Them To Gain The Victory (Psalms 60:9-12 ). David now questions who it is who has caused him to venture against Edom, and who it is who will give Israel victory over them (lead them into Edom’s strong city, Petra)? Surely it cannot be God for God appears to have cast them off and not to be going forth with them. But his point is that they could be satisfied with... read more

Arthur Peake

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 60:1-12

LX. This Ps. really consists of two bound together in an abrupt style. In A, i.e. in Psalms 60:1-Deuteronomy :; Psalms 60:10 b, Psalms 60:11 f. we have a lament over the desperate condition of Israel, though the Psalmist is driven by his despair to renewed trust in God. In B ( Psalms 60:6-2 Samuel : a) the tone is quite different. Appeal is made to a Divine oracle and the poet exults in the confidence that Israel will recover its possessions and utterly subdue Moab and Edom. The whole of B... read more

Joseph Exell

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Psalms 60:1-12

INTRODUCTIONSuperscription.—“To the Chief Musician.” See Introduction to Psalms 57:0. “Upon Shushaneduth,” is probably a musical direction to the leader of the choir. In the superscription to Psalms 45, 69, , 80, we have Shoahannim, the plural of Shushan. See Introduction to Psalms 45:0. “Shushan-eduth” signifies “the lily of testimony,” and, possibly, contains the first words of some psalm to the melody of which this psalm was to be sung. “Michtam of David.” See Introduction to Psalms 56:0.... read more
