(Show All Books | Show All Chapters)
This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Psalm 9 and Psalm 10 are linked together by an irregular Acrostic (see notes on pp. 721, 722, and App-63), beginning at Psa_9:1 and ending with Psa_10:18. Seven letters are omitted. The Acrostic is irregular, corresponding with the "times of trouble". The notes will show how one subject pervades them (see H p. 721). Compare "the lawless one" (Psa_9:5, Psa_9:16 and Psa_10:2, Psa_10:4, Psa_10:13, Psa_10:15); "times of trouble" (Psa_9:9 and Psa_10:1); "the oppressed" (Hebrew. dak, crushed, Psa_9:9 and Psa_10:18; occurs only here and Psa_74:21); "mortal men" (Psa_9:19, Psa_9:20 and Psa_10:18); "forget" (Psa_9:12, Psa_9:17, Psa_9:18 and Psa_10:11, Psa_10:12); "humble" (Psa_9:12, Psa_9:18, and Psa_10:12, Psa_10:17); "not alway" (Psa_9:18, and "never", Psa_10:11); "for ever and ever" (Psa_9:5 and Psa_10:16); "arise, Jehovah" (Psa_9:19 and Psa_10:12).
