It is uncertain who was the author of this Psalm, but probably it was written by one of the captives, either just upon their coming to Babylon, or, at least, during the time of their continuance there. Herein the captives complain of the scoffs of their enemies, yet remember Jerusalem, and foresee the downfall of Babylon, Psalms 137:1-9. The Psalm, says Dr. Horne, “admits of a beautiful and useful application to the state of Christians in this world, and their expected deliverance out of it.”
