시편 72:9-10 KRV

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Psalms 72:2-17

This is a prophecy of the prosperity and perpetuity of the kingdom of Christ under the shadow of the reign of Solomon. It comes in, 1. As a plea to enforce the prayer: ?Lord, give him thy judgments and thy righteousness, and then he shall judge thy people with righteousness, and so shall answer the end of his elevation, Ps. 72:2. Give him thy grace, and then thy people, committed to his charge, will have the benefit of it.? Because God loved Israel, he made him king over them to do judgment... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Psalms 72:9

They that dwell in the wilderness shall bow before him ,.... In token of subjection to him, reverence and worship of him, to whom every knee shall bow, Isaiah 45:23 . The Septuagint version, and others, render the word ציים , "Ethiopians", who dwell in a dry land, parched and burnt with the sun; and so it is a prophecy of their conversion to Christ, as in Psalm 68:31 ; of which there is an instance, Acts 8:27 ; the word is used of the wild beasts of the field, in Isaiah 13:21 ; to... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Psalms 72:10

The kings of Tarshish and of the isles shall bring presents ,.... Tarshish either signifies the sea, as it is sometimes rendered in the Targum; and then the sense is, the kings of the sea, that is, of the islands of the sea, as it follows, shall be subject to the kingdom of Christ; and, as a token of it, bring presents to him, as the Moabites and Syrians did to David, and as several nations and kings did to Solomon, 2 Samuel 8:2 ; or it designs a large country inhabited by the Celtae F2 ... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 72:9

They that dwell in the wilderness - The ציים tsiyim , termed Ethiopians by the Vulgate, Septuagint, Ethiopic, and Arabic. The Syriac terms them the islands. But it is likely that those who dwell by the sea-coasts, and support themselves by navigation and fishing, are here intended. His enemies shall lick the dust - Shall be so completely subdued, that they shall be reduced to the most abject state of vassalage, till they shall become proselytes to the Jewish faith. read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 72:10

The kings of Tarshish and of the isles shalt bring presents - Though Solomon did not reign over Cilicia, of which Tarsus was the capital, yet he might receive gifts, not in the sense of tribute; for מנחה minchah , the word here used, signifies a gratitude or friendly offering. The kings of Sheba and Seba - Both countries of Arabia. From the former came the queen of Sheba, to hear the wisdom of Solomon. And she brought exceeding great presents or gifts, but not in the way of tribute,... read more

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 72:10

Verse 10 10.The kings of Tarshish and of the isles shall bring presents. The Psalmist still continues, as in the preceding verse, to speak of the extent of the kingdom. The Hebrews apply the appellation of Tarshish to the whole coast, which looks towards Cilicia. By the isles, therefore, is denoted the whole coast of the Mediterranean Sea, from Cilicia to Greece. As the Jews, contenting themselves with the commodities of their own country, did not undertake voyages to distant countries, like... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Psalms 72:1-20

The glory of Christ's kingdom. It is written that Satan took our Lord "up into an exceeding high mountain, and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and the glory of them" ( Matthew 4:8 ); but they had no charm, for him. In this psalm we are, so to speak, taken up by the Spirit, and shown the kingdom of Messiah; and as its glory opens to our sight our hearts are thrilled with admiration and delight. With renewed ardour we cry, "Thy kingdom come." Consider some things testified here as... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Psalms 72:9

They that dwell in the wilderness shall how before him (for the meaning here assigned to tsiyyim ( ציּים ), see Psalms 74:14 ; Isaiah 23:13 ). The wild tribes of the Syrian and Arabian deserts are probably intended (comp. Isaiah 60:6 , Isaiah 60:7 ). And his enemies shall lick the dust ; i.e; prostrate themselves at his feet with their faces in the dust. See the Assyrian representations of Oriental prostrations. read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Psalms 72:10

The kings of Tarshish and of the isles shall bring presents. "Tarshish" here is probably Tartessus in Spain, so well known to the Israelites in the days of Solomon ( 1 Kings 10:22 ; 2 Chronicles 9:21 ). According to Herodotus, Tartessus, when it first became known to the Greeks, was governed by kings (Herod; 1:163). By "the isles" are to be understood the coasts and islands of the Mediterranean generally. All these have, at one time or another, paid homage to Christ. The kings of Sheba... read more
