Salmos 106:6-7 RVA

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Psalms 106:6-12

Here begins a penitential confession of sin, which was in a special manner seasonable now that the church was in distress; for thus we must justify God in all that he brings upon us, acknowledging that therefore he has done right, because we have done wickedly; and the remembrance of former sins, notwithstanding which God did not cast off his people, is an encouragement to us to hope that, though we are justly corrected for our sins, yet we shall not be utterly abandoned. I. God's afflicted... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Psalms 106:6

We have sinned with our fathers ,.... Sinned in their first father Adam; derived a corrupt nature from their immediate ancestors; sinned after the similitude of their transgressions; sinned after their example, in like manner as they did; guilty of the same gross enormities as they were: though sufficiently warned by the words of the prophets, and by punishments inflicted, they continued their sins, a constant series and course of them, and filled up the measure of their iniquities; they... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Psalms 106:7

Our fathers understood not thy wonders in Egypt ,.... Or, "our fathers in Egypt" F12 אבותינו במצרים "patres nostri in Aegypto", V. L. Pagninus, Montanus, &c.; ; while they were there, they did not understand, or wisely consider and attend unto, the miracles there wrought, the plagues inflicted on the Egyptians. These were done in their sight, they saw them with their eyes; yet had not hearts to perceive them, and understand the true use and design of them: not only that these... read more

We have sinned - Here the confession begins; what preceded was only the introduction to what follows: Our forefathers sinned, and suffered; we, like them, have sinned, and do suffer. read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 106:7

Our fathers understood not - They did not regard the operation of God's hands; and therefore they understood neither his designs nor their own interest. At the sea, even at the Red Sea - Some of the rabbins suppose that the repetition of the words point out two faults of the Israelites at the Red Sea. They murmured against Moses for bringing them out of Egypt, when they saw the sea before them, and Pharaoh behind them. When the waters were divided, they were afraid to enter in, lest... read more

John Calvin

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 106:6

Verse 6 6We have sinned with our fathers It is quite plain from these words, that although the prophet may have spoken in the person of one man, he yet dictates a form of prayer for the common use of the whole Church, seeing that he now identifies himself with the whole body. And from this to the end of the psalm, he gleans from ancient histories that their fathers had always been of a malign and perverse spirit, of corrupt practice, rebellious, ungrateful and perfidious towards God; and... read more

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 106:7

Verse 7 7Our fathers understood not thy wonders in Egypt, Here he relates how the people immediately, from the very commencement of their emancipation from bondage, were ungrateful to God, and conducted themselves in a rebellious manner. Nor does he confine himself to the history of one period only, but the whole drift of his narrative is to point out that the people had never ceased from doing wickedly, although God met them in return with inconceivable kindness; which is a proof of the... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Psalms 106:1-48

The nevertheless of God's mercy. This is actually expressed in Psalms 106:44 , but it is the theme of the whole psalm. Note concerning it— I. IT IMPLIES PREVIOUS AND TERRIBLE PROVOCATION . And, indeed, there had been such: 1 . In sins actually committed. What a catalogue of them the psalm contains! Sin at the very beginning ( Psalms 106:7 ). The former psalm reviewed the history of God's people as a subject for adoring praise, because of God's never-failing... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Psalms 106:6

We have sinned with our fathers (comp. Le 26:40; 1 Kings 8:47 ; Ezra 9:6 , Ezra 9:7 ; Nehemiah 1:6 , Nehemiah 1:7 ; Nehemiah 9:16-18 , Nehemiah 9:26 ; Daniel 9:5-8 ). We have committed iniquity; or, "dealt perversely" (Kay). We have done wickedly . The confession is as broad and general as possible, including all under sin—the "fathers" from Moses downwards, the whole nation from the time of its settlement in Canaan, and even the afflicted exiles in Babylon. Their guilt... read more
