시편 18:35 KRV

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Psalms 18:30-50

Giving all Glory to God Alone v. 30. As for God, His way is perfect, always faultless and unblamable; the Word of the Lord is tried, refined and found, not drossy ore, but pure gold. He is a Buckler, a reliable Protection, to all those that trust in Him. v. 31. For who is God save the Lord? Or who is a rock, a certain refuge and concealment, save our God? Jehovah alone is the true God, who can and will help. v. 32. It is God that girdeth me with strength, enabling him to meet all dangers... read more

Psalms 18:0To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David, the servant of the Lord, who spake unto the Lord the words of this song in the day that the Lord delivered him from the hand of all his enemies, and from the hand of Saul: And he said,1 I will love thee, O Lord, my strength.2 The Lord is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer;My God, my strength, in whom I will trust;My buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower.3 I will call upon the Lord, who is worthy to... read more

Girded with Strength for Service Psalms 18:27-50 God’s way is perfect, and if only we will walk with Him He will make ours perfect also. Walls and troops cannot stop a man when God leads him through them. We must follow on the line of His purpose, and then the very mountains are a way and our enemies subserve the program, Acts 2:23 . Swift and sure-footed, when the path is slippery, Psalms 18:33 ; strong in battle, Psalms 18:34 ; great through God’s gentle kindness, or, as the English Book... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Psalms 18:1-50

This is one of the most majestic and beautiful of the worship psalms. It is at once a perfect pattern of praise and therefore a great revelation of the method and might and mercy of God. So clear and simple is it in its movement and language that nothing need be said of it save, perhaps, to suggest an analysis to aid in its study. Prologue of Praise (1-3). Here the psalmist pours out the gladness and gratitude of his heart which thrills with the highest spirit of adoration. The Peril and... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 18:30-36

David Gives A Summary of What God Is And Of All God’s Blessings to Him (Psalms 18:30-36 ). Psalms 18:30 ‘As for God, his way is perfect, The word of YHWH is tried (tested and proved true), He is a shield to all those who take refuge in him.’ David knows that God’s way is perfect. Thus to walk in that way is to walk the perfect road. He desired no other. For he knew that God’s word had been tried and tested and had never failed. Each of us similarly can enjoy the perfection of God’s way, and... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 18:1-50

XVIII. See p. 367 for the reasons which make it impossible to ascribe this Ps. to David. Even scholars who hold traditional views admit that he cannot have written it as it stands, and that additional matter has been interpolated by later scribes. The language, which is Aramaic in its colouring, confirms the view that it is late, and so does the theophany in Psalms 18:3-Proverbs : when compared with Deuteronomy 32. Possibly a later writer composed it and put it by a very permissible license... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Psalms 18:35

The shield of thy salvation; thy safeguard and protection, which hath been to me like a shield to defend me. Holden me up; kept me from falling into those snares and mischiefs which mine enemies designed, and I feared. Thy gentleness, or meekness, as this word signifies, Numbers 12:3; Psalms 10:17; Psalms 45:4; Zephaniah 2:3, i.e. thy clemency, whereby thou hast pardoned my sins, which might otherwise have undone me, and mitigated thy corrections which I have deserved; thy grace and benignity,... read more

Joseph Exell

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Psalms 18:1-50

INTRODUCTION“This magnificent triumphal hymn was composed by David in celebration of his deliverance from his enemies. But the sublimity of the figures used in it, and the consent of ancient commentators, even Jewish as well as Christian, but, above all, the citations, made from it in the New Testament, evince that the kingdom of Messiah is here pointed at under that of David. It may thus be divided into five parts.Part I. Consisting of the first three verses, is the proem of the song.Part II.... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Psalms 18:35

Psalms 18:35 Consider how the gentleness of a loving correction makes God's children great. For we ought, all of us, to wish to be great great in the school of Christ, great in the Divine life, great in holiness, great in usefulness. There could not be a worse mistake than telling any Christian to crush or to curb his ambition. It is one of those natural passions which are virtues or vices according to their end. As an end, ambition is self, and therefore sin. As a means to God's glory,... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Psalms 18:1-50

Psalms 18:1-50 The eighteenth psalm has a long title to it. It is to chief musician.

This evidently is the time when he was... read more
