Psalms 22:14,15 - Joseph Benson’s Commentary on the Old and New Testaments

Bible Comments

I am poured out like water My spirits are spent and gone like water, which, once spilt, can never be recovered; my very flesh is melted within me, and I am become as weak as water. My bones are out of joint I am as unable to help myself, and as full of pain, as if all my bones were disjointed. My heart is like wax Melted through fear and overwhelming grief. My strength is dried I have, in a manner, no more moisture left in me, than is in a dry potsherd. My tongue cleaveth, &c. Through excessive thirst and drought. Thou hast brought me to death

By thy providence delivering me into the power of mine enemies, and by thy terrors in my soul.

Psalms 22:14-15

14 I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint: my heart is like wax; it is melted in the midst of my bowels.

15 My strength is dried up like a potsherd; and my tongue cleaveth to my jaws; and thou hast brought me into the dust of death.
