Psalm 9:10

James Nisbet's Church Pulpit Commentary - Psalms 9:10

THEY THAT KNOW GOD TRUST HIM‘They that know Thy name will put their trust in Thee.’Psalms 9:10 I. Christ, in the prayer recorded in St. John 17, says: ‘I have manifested Thy name unto the men that Thou gavest me.’ And again, ‘I have declared unto them Thy name, and will declare it.’ The manifestation of God’s name is the manifestation of God. They that know His name know Him, and they put their trust in Him. Knowledge and faith are in inseparable alliance. Unbelief and ignorance go together.... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 9:9-10

‘YHWH also will be a high tower for the oppressed, A high tower in times of trouble; And those who know your name will put their trust in you; For you, YHWH, have not forsaken those who seek you.’ But it is not only the Davidic king who enjoys God’s protection, it is he and all God’s true people. God protects all who, because they are righteous and trust in Him, are oppressed by the unrighteous, and He will be a fortress tower on their behalf, into which they can enter and be safe. While they... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 9:1-20

9 and 10. Yahweh the Refuge of His People.— These two Pss., divided in MT, were originally one, This is proved by the fact that they are one in LXX. and Vulg., by the absence of title over Psalms 10, and, conclusively, by the evidence that 9 and 10 form one acrostic poem. It was arranged in strophes of four lines each, the first letter of each strophe being one of the letters of the Heb. alphabet in regular succession. This system is carried out in the whole of Psalms 9-2 in Psalms 10. So far... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Psalms 9:10

They that know, i.e. that thoroughly understand and duly consider. Thy name, i.e. thy nature and perfections, thy infinite power, and wisdom, and faithfulness, and goodness; which make a person a most fit and proper object for trust. The name of God is most frequently put for God, as he hath manifested himself in his word and works, as Deuteronomy 28:58; Psalms 7:17; Psalms 20:1; Proverbs 18:10, &c. Thou hast not forsaken; the experience of thy faithfulness to thy people in all ages is a... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Psalms 9:1-20

INTRODUCTION“A psalm of thanksgiving (Psalms 9:1-2) after a victory (Psalms 9:3) over the heathen wrought by Divine judgment (Psalms 9:4-6), expressing confidence in His constant protection of the oppressed (Psalms 9:7-10); therefore the pious have to thank God (Psalms 9:11-12), and pray to Him in every time of need (Psalms 9:13-14). The judicial government of God causes the enemies finally to perish, and saves the sufferers (Psalms 9:15-18); therefore the prayer (Psalms 9:19-20), which shows... read more

Charles Simeon's Horae Homileticae - Psalms 9:10

DISCOURSE: 502THE NAME OF GOD A GROUND OF TRUSTPsalms 9:10. They that know thy name will put their trust in thee: for thou, Lord, hast not forsaken them that seek thee.IN reading the Holy Scriptures, we should not be satisfied with inquiring into their sense and meaning, but should mark very particularly the character of God, as set forth in them. In the sacred volume, the portrait of Jehovah, if I may so express myself, is drawn, as it were, at full length: so that, as far as such weak... read more

Spurgeon's Verse Expositions of the Bible - Psalms 9:10

Dilemma and Deliverance December 4th, 1859 by C. H. SPURGEON (1834-1892) "Thou, Lord, hast not forsaken them that seek thee." Psalms 9:10 . There are many men who are exceedingly well read in heathen mythologies; who can tell you the history of any one of the heathen gods, but who at the same time know very little of the history of Jehovah, and cannot rehearse his mighty acts. In our schools to this day there are books put into the hands of our youth that are by no means fit for them to read... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Psalms 9:1-20

Psalms 9:1-20 The ninth psalm is to the chief musician on Muthlabben. Muthlabben is the death of a son. This could have been when Bathsheba's first son died.I will praise thee, O LORD, with my whole heart; I will show forth all thy marvelous works. I will be glad and rejoice in thee: I will sing praise to thy name, O thou Most High. When mine enemies are turned back, they shall fall and perish at thy presence. For thou hast maintained my right and my cause; you sat in the throne judging right.... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Psalms 9:1-20

Psalms 9:5 . Thou hast rebuked the heathen. A song in ancient time was made after every victory, a sort of Te Deum, to be sung in the congregation. The collection of those hallowed martial odes was called the Book of the wars of the Lord. The rabbins say that this psalm was composed after the fall of Goliath, and the defeat of the Philistines. They, and the Ammonites, had shed innocent blood. Psalms 9:12 . When he maketh inquisition for blood. The Ammonites, on the breaking out of the... read more
