|
|
<p>Excepting the recurrence of the refrain, there is no good reason to suppose this a part of the preceding, though the scope is the same. It has always been placed separate.
|
|
<p><b>1. Judge</b>—or, "vindicate" (<a onclick="return mV('Psa',10,18);">Psa 10:18</a>).
|
|
<br><br><b>plead,</b> etc.— (<a onclick="return mV('Psa',35,1);">Psa 35:1</a>).
|
|
<br><br><b>ungodly</b>—neither in character or condition objects of God's favor (compare <a onclick="return mV('Psa',4,3);">Psa 4:3</a>).
|
|
<p id="Ps43_2"><b>2. God of my strength</b>—by covenant relation my stronghold (<a onclick="return mV('Psa',18,1);">Psa 18:1</a>).
|
|
<br><br><b>cast me off</b>—in scorn.
|
|
<br><br><b>because</b>—or, "in," that is, in such circumstances of oppression.
|
|
<p id="Ps43_3"><b>3. light</b>—as in <a onclick="return mV('Psa',27,1);">Psa 27:1</a>.
|
|
<br><br><b>truth</b>—or, "faithfulness" (<a onclick="return mV('Psa',25,5);">Psa 25:5</a>), manifest it by fulfilling promises. <i>Light</i> and <i>truth</i> are personified as messengers who will bring him to the privileged place of worship.
|
|
<br><br><b>tabernacles</b>—plural, in allusion to the various courts.
|
|
<p id="Ps43_4"><b>4. the altar</b>—as the chief place of worship. The mention of the harp suggests the prominence of praise in his offering.
