This Chapter Verse Commentaries:





Thou furnishest me with plenty and variety of provisions and comforts,



mine enemies seeing, and envying, and fretting at it, but not being able to hinder it.



With oil; or, ointment, as the Syriac and Arabic interpreters render it; with aromatical ointments, which were then used at great feasts, Psa_92:10 Amo_6:6 Mat_6:17 Luk_7:38. The sense is, Thy comforts delight my soul: compare Psa_45:7.



My cup runneth over; thou hast given me a very plentiful portion, signified by the cup given to the guests by the master of the feast.
