Psalm 22:26-27 KJV

The Pulpit Commentary - Psalms 22:22-31

Consequences of deliverance. In this last part the sufferer depicts the happy consequences of his deliverance, which he anticipates in faith, and, lifted up in spirit above the present, beholds, as if it were already present. I. THE PSALMIST 'S DELIVERANCE SHALL BE A CAUSE OF REJOICING TO ALL ISRAEL . ( Psalms 22:22-26 .) 1 . He will inspire the whole congregation with the tidings.

The Pulpit Commentary - Psalms 22:26

The meek shall eat and be satisfied . In the Eucharistic feasts of Christ's kingdom it is "the meek" especially who shall eat, and be satisfied, feeling that they have all their souls long for—a full banquet, of the very crumbs of which they are not worthy. They shall praise the Lord that seek him . The service shall be emphatically one of praise. Your heart shall live for ever . The result shall be life for evermore; for the body and blood of the Lord Jesus Christ, worthily received,... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Psalms 22:27

All the ends of the world shall remember and turn unto the Lord. The Gentiles from every quarter shall come into the new kingdom, remembering him whom they had so long forgotten, Jehovah, the true God. And all the kindreds of the nations shall worship before thee. Pleonastic. A repetition of the idea contained in the preceding clause. (For the fulfilment, the history of missions must be consulted.) read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Psalms 22:26

The meek shall eat and be satisfied - The word “meek” - ענוים ‛ănâviym - means here rather “afflicted, distressed, miserable.” This is its usual meaning. It is employed sometimes in the sense of mild or meek (compare Numbers 12:3); but it here manifestly denotes the afflicted; the poor; the distressed. When it is said that they would “eat and be satisfied,” the idea is that of prosperity or abundance; and the statement is, that, as the result of the Redeemer’s work, blessings in abundance... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Psalms 22:27

All the ends of the world - All parts of the earth; all nations. The earth is frequently represented in the Scriptures as having limits or boundaries; as spread out; as having corners, etc. Compare Isaiah 11:12; Jeremiah 9:26; Jeremiah 25:23; Jeremiah 49:32; Revelation 7:1. This language is in accordance with the prevailing modes of thinking, in the same way as we say, “the sun rises;” “the sun sets,” etc.Shall remember - The nations are often represented as “forgetting” God; that is, they act... read more

Psalms 22:26. The meek That is, the poor or humble, gentle and teachable, namely, believing and godly persons whose hearts the grace of God hath softened and sweetened, subduing their pride and passion, and their rebellion against God, and fierceness toward men; shall eat and be satisfied Shall partake of those spiritual blessings which God hath provided for them in his gospel, that grace, and peace, and comfort, which all believing souls enjoy, in a sense of God’s love, in the pardon of... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Psalms 22:27

Psalms 22:27. All the ends of the world All nations, from one end of the world to the other. So this is an evident prophecy of the calling of the Gentiles to the knowledge of God and Christ by the gospel, and a clear proof that this Psalm immediately speaks of Christ; to whom alone this and divers other passages of it belong. Shall remember They shall remember their former wickedness with grief, and shame, and fear; particularly in worshipping dead and impotent idols. They shall remember... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Psalms 22:1-31

Psalms 22:0 Suffering and salvationAt the time of the writing of this psalm, David had reached what he thought was the farthest extreme of suffering. He was almost at the point of despair. Christians know that they are required to share the sufferings of Christ (Colossians 1:24), but David was probably unaware that, in the experiences recorded here, he was also having a share in those sufferings. His experiences were a foretaste of the greater sufferings that the messianic king Jesus would one... read more
