Psalms 132:11

Verse 11

11. Sworn So Psalms 89:3. The allusion is to 2 Samuel 7:8-16. The swearing is not to be sought for in form, so much as in the unchangeableness of the word, which finds its complete fulfilment in David’s prototype, Messiah, and his kingdom. See Acts 2:30; Luke 1:32; Luke 1:69. The second member of the verse explains the force of the first. On the covenant with David, see on Psalms 89:3-4; Psalms 89:19-37
