This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Our soul, i.e. either our lives or persons; or rather bodies, as it is explained in the next clause, and as the soul is oft taken by a synecdoche, as Num_11:6 Psa_16:10 106:15, &c.
To the dust; either to the ground, where we lie prostrate at our enemies’ feet, or to the grave.
Our belly cleaveth unto the earth; we are not only thrown down to the earth, but we lie there like dead carcasses fixed to it, without any ability or hope of rising again.
