Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 22:11-21

The Sufferer’s Prayer For Deliverance And Provides A Description of His Predicament (Psalms 22:11-21 ). That we are to see some of these descriptions as figurative comes out in Psalms 22:21 where the psalmist sums all up by describing it as being saved from the lion’s mouth and from the horns of the wild ox. He has a vivid imagination and knows much about the hunt and about the behaviour of wild beasts, and how they are treated in the hunt. Psalms 22:11 ‘Do not be far from me, for trouble is... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 22:1-31

XXII. This Ps. (p. 372) consists of two parts. In Psalms 22:1-Ecclesiastes : a godly man in deep and manifold distress complains that the God of his fathers, the God who has been with him from the beginning, has deserted him (see p. 372). Psalms 22:22-Obadiah : is a liturgical addition: it expresses the pious Israelite’ s gratitude for Israel’ s glory, which is to be acknowledged even by the heathen. No attempt is made to bridge the gulf between the despair of Psalms 22:1-Ecclesiastes : and... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Psalms 22:11

Be not far from me, to wit, as to affection and succour. Trouble is near at hand, and ready to swallow me up; and therefore if thou dost not speedily deliver me, it will be too late; which is an argument that David oft useth, as Psalms 6:5; Psalms 88:11, &c. There is none to help; thy help therefore will be the more seasonable, because it is most hecessary, and thou wilt have the more of glory by it, because it will appear that it is thy work alone. read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Psalms 22:1-31

INTRODUCTION“The subject of this psalm is the deliverance of a righteous sufferer from his enemies, and the effect of this deliverance on others. It is so framed as to be applied without violence to any case belonging to the class described, yet so that it was fully verified only in Christ, the Head and Representative of the class in question. The immediate speaker in the psalm is an ideal person, the righteous servant of Jehovah, but his words may, to a certain extent, be appropriated by any... read more

Charles Simeon's Horae Homileticae - Psalms 22:11-21

DISCOURSE: 527THE SUFFERINGS OF CHRISTPsalms 22:11-21. Be not far from me, for trouble is near; for there is none to help. Many bulls have compassed me: strong bulls of Bashan have beset me round. They gaped upon me with their mouths, as a ravening and a roaring lion. I am poured out like water, and all mg bones are out of joint: my heart is like wax; it is melted in the midst of my bowels. My strength is dried up like a potsherd: and my tongue cleaveth to my jaws: and thou hast brought me into... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Psalms 22:1-31

Psalms 22:1-31 Psalms 22:1-31 is one of those prophetic psalms which stands out probably among all of the Messianic psalms. This psalm is again a psalm of David, and it is a very graphic description of death by crucifixion. Now, at the time that David wrote this, stoning was the method of capital punishment. Actually, it was almost 1000 years later that crucifixion was introduced by the Romans as a form of capital punishment. So that David would describe death by crucifixion is sort of a... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Psalms 22:1-31

Psalms 22:1 . My God, my God. The LXX, Ο Θεος ο Θεος μου . The Chaldaic is like the English. The Hebrew forms the superlative degree by repetition. Example: “The heaven, and the heaven of heavens cannot contain thee.” The Lord called Abraham, Abraham; and again at the bush, Moses, Moses. When the Saviour became our covert, and received the storm of anger against a guilty world, his suffering humanity offered up strong cries and tears to God in these sublime words, Why hast thou forsaken... read more

Psalms 22:1-31My God, my God, why hast Thou forsaken me?The prophetic image of the Prince of sufferersWho is the sufferer whose wail is the very voice of desolation and despair, and who yet dares to believe that the tale of his sorrow will be a gospel for the world? The usual answers are given. The title ascribes the authorship to David, and is accepted by Delitzsch and others. Hengstenberg and his followers see in the picture the ideal righteous man. Others think of Hezekiah or Jeremiah, with... read more

Psalms 22:11Be not far from me; for trouble is near; for there is none to help.Help in troubleIn this Psalm “a greater than David is here,” even Christ. You cannot pay a visit to Calvary, while reading this Psalm, without being struck wire the record as giving a history of what subsequently took place in the sufferings and agony of our Lord.I. First of all, let us look at the principle laid down--a mountains; yet when we approach them we find them to be mole hills, which we can easily step over... read more

John Trapp Complete Commentary - Psalms 22:11

Psa 22:11 Be not far from me; for trouble [is] near; for [there is] none to help. Ver. 11. Be not far from me, for trouble is near ] And so it is high time for thee to put forth a helping hand. Hominibus profanis mirabilis videtur haec ratio, to profane persons, this seemeth to be a strange reason, saith an interpreter; but it is a very good one, as this prophet knew, who therefore makes it his plea. For there is none to help ] Set in, therefore, O Lord, and help, at a dead lift, poor me,... read more
