Salmos 41:4-13 NVIPT

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Psalms 41:1-4

In these verses we have, I. God's promises of succour and comfort to those that consider the poor; and, 1. We may suppose that David makes mention of these with application either, (1.) To his friends, who were kind to him, and very considerate of his case, now that he was in affliction: Blessed is he that considers poor David. Here and there he met with one that sympathized with him, and was concerned for him, and kept up his good opinion of him and respect for him, notwithstanding his... read more

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Psalms 41:5-13

David often complains of the insolent conduct of his enemies towards him when he was sick, which, as it was very barbarous in them, so it could not but be very grievous to him. They had not indeed arrived at that modern pitch of wickedness of poisoning his meat and drink, or giving him something to make him sick; but, when he was sick, they insulted over him (Ps. 41:5): My enemies speak evil of me, designing thereby to grieve his spirit, to ruin his reputation, and so to sink his interest. Let... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Psalms 41:4

I said, Lord, be merciful unto me ,.... See Gill on Psalm 40:11 ; heal my soul ; not that it was diseased with sin in such sense as the souls of other men are; but it is to be understood as a petition for comfort while bearing the sins of others, and which Christ as man stood in need of when in the garden and on the cross; so healing signifies comfort in trouble, as in Isaiah 57:18 ; for I have sinned against thee ; or "unto thee", or "before thee", as the Targum; not that any... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Psalms 41:5

Mine enemies speak evil of me ,.... That is, the Jews, who were enemies to his person, people, doctrines and ordinances, and would not have him to reign over them; these spake evil of him, charged him with being a glutton and a winebibber; said he had a devil, and was a Samaritan; imputed his miracles to diabolical influence; branded his doctrine with blasphemy, and spoke against his religion and worship, and wished him ill, saying, when shall he die ; they had a good will to assassinate... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Psalms 41:6

And if he come to see me ,.... Meaning anyone of his enemies, when they came, as pretended, to pay him a friendly visit. A late learned writer F24 Delaney's Life of King David, vol. 2. p. 157, 158. interprets this of Absalom, who visited his father when he had the smallpox, which he thinks, after mentioned, of which his enemies expected he would die, when Absalom pretended great concern for his life; though he, with others, were plotting against him, should he live, to destroy him; ... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Psalms 41:7

All that hate me whisper together against me ,.... That is, they privately conspired against him; see Matthew 22:15 ; against me do they devise my hurt ; not only to take away his name and credit, but his life. read more

John Gill

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Psalms 41:8

An evil disease, say they , cleaveth fast unto him ,.... Not any bodily one, of which they might hope he would die; much less any foul disease, the disease of sin; but, as the phrase may be rendered, "a word of Belial" F25 דבר בליעל "verbum Belijahal", Montanus, Musculus, Cocceius, Gejerus. ; that is, a wicked charge or accusation; a charge of sin brought against him by the sons of Belial, as of blasphemy and sedition, which they concluded would be fastened upon him, and stick by... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Psalms 41:9

Yea, mine own familiar friend ,.... Or, "the man of my peace" F26 איש שלומי "vir pacis meae", Pagninus, Montanus, Vatablus, Cocceius, Gejerus, Michaelis. ; who did live peaceably with him, and ought always to have done so; whom he treated as his friend, as the rest of the apostles; calling him to that high office, and ordaining him to it, and qualifying him for it; and whom he called by the name of friend, when he came to betray him; Judas is meant; in whom I trusted ; with the... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Psalms 41:10

But thou, O Lord, be merciful unto me, and raise me up ,.... Not from a bed of illness, nor from a state of poverty and want; but from the dead: it was by the will of his divine Father that he suffered death, and it was to him he made satisfaction and reconciliation for the sins of his people, by his sufferings and death; and therefore it was but a reasonable request, that, having done this, he should be raised from the dead: besides, his Father had promised it, and he had believed it; so... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Psalms 41:11

By this I know that thou favourest me ,.... Or "delightest in me" F26 הפצת בי "complacuisti in me", Pagninus, Montanus, Vatablus; "delectaris me", Junius & Tremellius, Piscator, Cocceius. ; as he did, both as his Son and his servant; in his obedience, sufferings, and death, whereby his counsels were accomplished, his covenant ratified, and the salvation of his people procured; and which delight and well pleasedness in him was the ground of his deliverance from the power of... read more
