PSALM 46
THE ARGUMENT
The occasion of this Psalm is thought to be that happy success, and settlement, and peace which God granted to the people of Israel in David’s time, and by his means, 2Sa 8
The confidence and safe condition of the church under God’s care, Psa_46:1-5; manifested in his wonderful deliverance from her enemies, Psa_46:6-9. He exhorteth all to consider it, to the magnifying his name, Psa_46:10,11.
God is our refuge, i.e. he hath now manifested himself to be so by the course of his providence.
A very present; or, a sufficient, as this word is sometimes used, as Jos_17:16 Zec_10:10.
