Psalms 57:3 - Exposition

He shall send from heaven, and save me from the reproach of him that would swallow me up. The two clauses stand unconnected in the original, which runs, "He shall send from heaven and save me—my pursuer reproaches—God shall send," etc. The second clause is really parenthetic, and, as Dr. Driver says, "circumstantial," noting the circumstances under which God would take action. God shall send forth his mercy and his truth . His mercy, to relieve the psalmist; his truth, to confound the psalmist's enemies.
