F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Psalms 22:16-31

the Testimony of the Delivered Psalms 22:16-31 In the middle of Psalms 22:21 there is a remarkable change from the plaintive to the triumphant: supplication and entreaty break out into exultation; hope saves the broken harp from the hands of despair, restrings it, and extracts from it strains to which angels, on their way home to God, are constrained to listen. He who had said, Thou hearest not, Psalms 22:2 , confesses that all the while God has been hearing and helping. Now Jesus will join... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Psalms 22:1-31

Whatever may have been the local conditions creating this psalm, it has become so perfectly and properly associated with the one Son of God that it is almost impossible to read it in any other way. This and the two following psalms constitute a triptych of tablets on which are written the story of the Christ in His work as Saviour, Shepherd, and Sovereign. As to this first, seeing that in the supreme mystery of the Passion Jesus quoted the first words, we are justified in reading it in the... read more

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

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 22:23

‘You who fear YHWH, praise Him. All you, the seed of Jacob, glorify Him. And stand in awe of Him, all you the seed of Israel.’ And in fulfilment of His promise He calls on all who fear YHWH to praise Him, and all ‘the seed of Jacob/Israel’ (representing God’s true people) to glorify Him and stand in awe of Him. Note the close connection with ideas in Isaiah 41-49 where the seeds of Jacob and Israel are constantly in mind, are closely connected with the Servant, and are to be restored. Now the... read more

Arthur Peake

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

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

I will declare, i.e. publish or celebrate it; when thou hast delivered me, thou shalt have the glory of it, as now thy honouris eclipsed by my calamities. Thy name, i.e. that power, and faithfulness, and goodness, and those perfections which thou hast manifested on my behalf. My brethren; the same whom he calls the congregation in the next clause, and the seed of Jacob and Israel in the next verse; which also doth not so fitly agree to David, who never to my remembrance gives this title to any... read more

Matthew Poole

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Psalms 22:23

Praise him; partly for my sake, and chiefly for your own benefit received by my deliverance. All ye the seed of Israel: the two universal particles seem to intimate that he speaks not only of the carnal, but also of the spiritual seed; which also is more than probable, by comparing this with Psalms 22:27,Psalms 22:28. 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
