Verse 6
Psa 41:6 And if he come to see [me], he speaketh vanity: his heart gathereth iniquity to itself; [when] he goeth abroad, he telleth [it].
Ver. 6. And if he come to see me ] That is, Ahithophel, or some such hollow hearted Holophanta (Plaut.).
He speaketh vanity ] Pretending that he is very sorry to see me so ill at ease; and letting fall some crocodile’s tears perhaps, Ore pro mea sanitate orant sed corde quaeruut malum (Midrash Tillin.).
His heart gathereth iniquity to itself ] As toads and serpents gather venom to vomit at you.
When he goeth abroad, he telleth it ] Boasting to his treacherous brotherhood of his base behaviour.
