Psalm 116:11 ASV

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Psalms 116:1-19

This is the fourth song of the Hallel. In it the note of triumph over death, with which the last one closed, is elaborated. The singer had evidently been in some grave peril in which he had practically despaired of life. From the peril he had been delivered by Jehovah, and now he sings His praise. It has two movements. The first tells of his love, and declares its reason and its issue (vv. Psa 116:1-9 ). The second tells of his resulting faith, breaks forth into new exultation, and affirms his... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Psalms 116:11

I said; yet once I confess I spake very unadvisedly. In my haste; through hastiness and precipitation of my mind, for want of due consideration, as the same phrase is used, Psalms 31:22. Or, in my terror or amazement, when I was discomposed and distracted with the greatness of my troubles. All men are liars: the sense is either, 1. All men, yea, even my former friends and companions, prove deceitful and perfidious, all human help faileth me; so that my case is desperate, if God do not help me.... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Psalms 116:1-19

INTRODUCTION“This Psalm is an evidence of the truth and depth of the religious life in individuals after the return from the Exile.… It reminds us of earlier Psalms, and especially of the Psalms of David. His words must have laid hold in no common degree of the hearts of those who were heirs of his faith, and have sustained them in times of sorrow and suffering; and nothing would be more natural than that later poets would echo his strains, and mingle his words with their own, when they poured... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Psalms 116:11

Psalms 116:11 The text reveals the psalmist as having passed through the shadow of that mood of mind to which we give the name of cynicism. The great danger is lest the mood should pass into a habit, lest we should nurse it until it becomes a chronic attitude of mind, and we begin to lose the taste of its bitterness and to take a morbid pleasure in indulging it. Notice one or two practical safeguards against the attitude or habit of cynicism. I. Let us cherish a modest estimate of our own... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Psalms 116:1-19

It is scarcely doubted but David is the author of this psalm, and that he wrote it when in exile from Saul’s persecution, or when Absalom rebelled, or on some similar occasion of danger and grief. It is a psalm of thanksgiving for deliverance. He loved the Lord, because he had heard the voice of his supplication. Psalms 116:3 . The sorrows of death. See Psalms 18:4. Psalms 116:6 .

The psalm opens with a general declaration of gratitude to God, as the hearer of prayer (verse 1).I. The true believer is a man of prayer.2. Another feature of the child of God is conviction of sin (verse 3).3.

Psa 116:11 I said in my haste, All men [are] liars. Ver. 11. I said in my haste ] In my heat, trepidation, concussion, outburst. Saints may have such, as being but men, subject to like passions; and as meeting with many molestations, Satanic and secular; and left sometimes to themselves by God, as was good Hezekiah, for their trial and exercise. The sea is not so calm in summer, but hath its commotions; the mountain so firm, but may be moved with an earthquake. Dogs in a chase bark sometimes... read more
