Introduction
To the chief Musician on Neginoth, Maschil, A Psalm of David, when the Ziphim came and said to Saul, Doth not David hide himself with us?
The interpretation of the psalm must fall in line with its title, remembering the great law of revelation, that no Scripture is of exclusive reference to one person, but every part illustrates a principle of universal application. 2 Peter 1:20. TITLE:
Neginoth, Maschil See on titles of Psalms 4, , 32.
Ziphim See the history, 1 Samuel 23:19; 1 Samuel 26:1. The city of Ziph was about twenty three miles south of Bethlehem, in the mountains of Judah. The ruins are still seen, called by the Arabs Zif.
Doth not David hide himself Compare the history, and Psalms 54:3 of the psalm.
