EXPOSITION.
This is the winding-up verse into which the writer throws
a fulness of expression, indicating the most rapturous delight of
gratitude. "_Great deliverance_." The word "_deliverance_" is
plural, to show the variety and completeness of the salvation;
the adjective "_great_" is well placed if we consider from what,
to what, and how we are saved. All this mercy is given to us in
our King, the Lord's Anointed, and those are blessed indeed who
as his seed may expect mercy to be built up for evermore. The
Lord was faithful to the literal David, and he will not break his
covenant with the spiritual David, for that would far more
involve the honour of his crown and character.
The Psalm concludes in the same loving spirit which shone
upon its commencement; happy are they who can sing on from love
to love, even as the pilgrims marched from strength to strength.
HINTS TO PREACHERS.
Verse 50.--The greatness of salvation, "_great
deliverance_;" its channel, "_the King_;" and its perpetuity,
"_for evermore_."
