Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Psalms 22:1-31

Psalms 22:1 . My God, my God. The LXX, Ο Θεος ο Θεος μου . The Chaldaic is like the English. The Hebrew forms the superlative degree by repetition.

He did this in His teaching, by His acts, but most of all in His death. And He continued to declare God’s name when He rose from the dead. Probably He does this still in heaven to the saints there. And certainly, by the spreading of His Gospel on earth. “In the midst of the congregation,” etc. When... read more

John Trapp Complete Commentary - Psalms 22:23

Psa 22:23 Ye that fear the LORD, praise him; all ye the seed of Jacob, glorify him; and fear him, all ye the seed of Israel. Ver. 23. Ye that fear the Lord, praise him ] viz. For your redemption by Christ’s death and resurrection. Neither are any fit for such a purpose but such as fear the Lord.

All ye seed of Jacob ] ... read more
