시편 61:2 KRV

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 61:1-4

Heading. ‘For the Chief Musician, on a stringed instrument. A Psalm of David.’ This Psalm is also dedicated to the Chief Musician and is to be accompanied by a stringed instrument. It is a Psalm of David. If David, rather than a member of the Davidic house, was its author it was quite possibly written during his period of exile east of Jordan after fleeing from Absalom (2 Samuel 15:13 ff.). In later days, after the end of the monarchy and the Exile, it began to be given a Messianic... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 61:1-8

LXI. The Psalmist prays from the end of the earth in the confidence that God will protect him. He expresses his desire to dwell in the Temple and ends with a prayer for the king. The Exile is presupposed: further we have no clue to the date except in the mention of the king (see on Psalms 20). We may add, however, that this king seems to be high priest also, for he is to dwell in the tabernacle ( Psalms 61:4) and to “ abide before God” ( Psalms 61:7). This suits later Maccabean times, but... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Psalms 61:2

Of the earth; or rather, of the land; to which David was driven by the tyranny of his enemies. Lead me to the rock that is higher than I; convey me into some high and secure fortress, which I could not reach without thy succour, and where mine enemies cannot come at me. He alludes to their custom of securing themselves in rocks, 1 Samuel 13:6. read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Psalms 61:1-8

INTRODUCTIONSuperscription.—“To the Chief Musician.” See Introduction to Psalms 57:0. “Upon Neginah.” Hebrew: Neginath. “The LXX. and Vulg., evidently read Neginoth in the plural, which occurs in the title of five psalms, and is perhaps the true reading. Whether the word be singular or plural, it is the general term by which all stringed instruments are described.” “Of David.” The contents of the psalm confirm the title as to its Davidic authorship. The psalm was probably composed by David When... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Psalms 61:2

Psalms 61:2 How many confessions underlie these words. Blindness, else David would not have said, "Lead me." Weakness, otherwise he would not have thought of a rock. Littleness; therefore he says, "Higher than I." The words of the text may convey (1) the notion of safety, for the metaphor may be taken from a ship in stormy water, or from a man travelling through the desert, subject to the simooms which sweep over the sand. In either case there would be security under the lee of a "rock," and... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Psalms 61:2-4

Psalms 61:2-4 Consider: I. In what sense David could say, "Thou hast been a shelter to me," and then that he was fully justified in concluding, "I will abide in Thy tabernacle for ever; I will trust in the covert of Thy wings." The argument before us is not precisely that which we could venture in all cases to employ with our fellow-men. Man is changeable, and the goodwill which he once showed to us may no longer exist, but may have been transferred to others, who will, in their turn, be forced... read more

DISCOURSE: 598ADVICE TO THE AFFLICTEDPsalms 61:2. From the end of the earth will I cry unto thee, when my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to the Rock that is higher than I.IN whatever situation we be, we shall find both consolation in the promises, and direction in the examples, that are recorded for our use in the Sacred Writings. But in seasons of affliction principally, will the holy Oracles be found precious, because they exhibit to us God’s dearest children in similar circumstances, and... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Psalms 61:1-8

Shall we turn now to the sixty-first psalm for our beginning of our Bible study this evening. Psalms 61:1-8 .Hear my cry, O Lord ( Psalms 61:1 );Now in the Hebrew, this word for cry is very intense. It is actually, "Hear my loud wailing, O Lord." Now David was the kind of a guy when he was in trouble, he really let go. Some people are very reserved in their nature. I'm sort of a reserved kind of a person, but David wasn't. I mean, when he was in trouble he wanted everybody to know. And... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Psalms 61:1-8

Title. A psalm of David, written during his northern expedition, as it would seem from the second verse. Psalms 61:2 . From the end of the earth will I cry unto thee; that is, from the north-east extremity of the country, where he was then fighting with Shobah, and in Mesopotamia, as in the preseding psalm. He was far from his country, from his throne, and the sanctuary. Lead me to the rock that is higher than I. The MESSIAH: so the ancients have understood the words. A fortified place... read more

Psalms 61:1-8Hear my cry, O God; attend unto my prayer.A meditation on the sixty-first psalmIn the first verse it is not the Jew but the man that speaks. The same idea can be found in all languages. When David speaks thus, he speaks for the whole world! There is no doubt the most intense personality in the petition; it is “my” cry, it is “my” prayer. What then? Even when the man individualizes himself most carefully, he does but mingle most familiarly with all other men. This is the voice of an... read more
