VERSE 1
- A.M. 2970. B.C. 1034. (Title.)
This psalm is supposed to have been composed by David about
the same time, and on the same occasion, as the two
preceding; with this difference, that here he magnifies God
for have obtained the mercy which he sought there. It also
contains a remarkable prophecy of the incarnation and
sacrifice of Jesus Christ.

The verbs in the preceding verse, in which the psalmist

here, and in the following verses, they are in the future
tense, and naturally express the language of lively faith and
hope, rather than that of wishing the destruction foreseen
and predicted.
