PSALM 94



THE ARGUMENT



The matter of this Psalm plainly declares the occasion of it to be the oppressions and persecutions of God’s people by wicked and cruel tyrants and enemies, against whom he prays for the Divine aid.



The psalmist, calling to God for justice, Psa_94:1-4, complaineth of tyranny and impiety, Psa_94:5-7; teacheth fools God’s providence, Psa_94:8-11; showeth the blessed effects of affliction, Psa_94:12,13; and a promise of his presence with the afflicted, Psa_94:14,15. He is their support, Psa_94:16-23.



As thou art the supreme Judge of the world, the Patron and Protector of the righteous, and the declared enemy of all wickedness and wicked men.
