PSALMUL 3 VERSIFICAT DIN PSALTERIUM HUNGARICUM din 1660 (Transilvania)

COMENTARIU DIN CARTEA: CHRIST AND HIS CHURCH IN THE BOOK OF PSALMS de Andrew Bonar

PSALM 3:1–8 THERE is strong evidence for the genuineness of the titles of the Psalms; they occur in all the Hebrew Manuscripts.* This Psalm was written by David, "when he fled from Absalom his son." The Holy Ghost may have used these circumstances in David's lot, as an appropriate occasion on which to dictate such a hymn of hopeful confidence in the Lord.

The connection with Psalm 2, is natural, whether we look to David's case when he penned it, or to the more general circumstances referred to throughout. When the men of Israel refused David as "King in Zion," (God's chosen type of a greater King), it was natural for him to raise the cry to the Lord, "Lord, how are they increased that trouble me." (Compare 2 Sam. 15:12.) And not less natural is it to place this cry next to the closing verses of Psalm 2, a Psalm wherein we were told how men despised His call and plotted against Jehovah and his Christ. Hengstenberg has remarked:—"It is certainly not to be regarded as an accident that Psalms the third and fourth follow immediately the first and second.

They, as well as Psalm second, are occupied with a revolt against the Lord's Anointed. And when, in ver. 8, the enemy is spoken of as 'smitten on the cheekbone, and his teeth broken,' there is the same tone of conscious safety, mingled with contempt of their efforts, as in the 'laugh' of Psalm 2" It is a Psalm that may be found as suitable and needful in the latter days, as when David wrote it. When waves of sorrow and calamity are dashing over the ship of the Church, it may borrow from this Psalm that ground of hope which long ago Jonah borrowed from it in his strange trial, "Salvation is of the Lord," (Jonah 2:9) "Affliction and desertion are two very different things, but often confounded by the world," and confounded too "by the fearful imaginations of our own desponding hearts, and the suggestions of our adversary."— Horne.

This seems to be a morning hymn (ver. 5.) And so Horsley hesitates not to call it "A prayer of Messiah, in the character of a Priest, coming at an early hour to prepare the altar of burnt-offering for the morning sacrifice." Every member of Christ may use it; and we can easily see how the Head himself could adopt it as his own. We feel as if sympathy were more sure to us, when we know that the Lord Jesus himself once was in circumstances when such a morning hymn expressed his state and feelings; for now every believer can say, "My Head once used this Psalm; and while I use its strains, his human heart will recall the day of his humiliation, when himself was comforted thereby." Who more truly than he could say of his foes, "How many!" since it was "the world" that hated him. (John 7:7)

On the cross, did they not upbraid him with the taunt, "There is no salvation for him in God," (ver. 2), when they cast in his teeth, "If he will have him" (Matt. 27:43); saying it not only of him, but to him? But (as in Psalm 22,) he cried unceasingly in the Father's ear the more his foes reviled—"I cry —he heareth." Often he retired to the Mount of Olives, and either amid its olives or at Bethany, "lay down and slept," after enduring the contradiction of sinners all day long; yes, even after such a day as that whereon they took up stones to stone him. He foresaw the ruin of these foes, (ver. 7), when the Lord should arise.* What a victory! and all the glory of it belonging to the Lord, and all the blessing to his people! (ver. 8.)

A believer can take up every clause, and sing it all in sympathy with his Head; hated by the same world that hated him; loved and kept by the same Father that lifted up his head; heard and answered and sustained as he was, and entering on with him final victory in the latter day.

It was fitting to put the arresting mark, "Selah," at ver. 2, where the foes are spoken of; at ver. 4, where the cry and its answer are declared; and at ver. 8, where the final result appears. "Selah," whatever be its etymology, † marks a proper place to pause and ponder. (Hengstenberg.) Here each Selah stops us at a scene in which there is spread before our eyes sufficient for the time; first, the host of foes, as far as eye can reach; next, the one suppliant crying into the ears of the Lord of hosts; and, lastly, that one suppliant's secure repose, certain of present safety and future triumph. May we not, then, justly entitle this Psalm, The Righteous One's safety amid foes?
