Psalms 89:8-10 - Joseph Benson’s Commentary on the Old and New Testaments

Bible Comments

Who is a strong Lord like unto thee? Who is equal to thee in power, or, as it follows, in faithfulness. Or to thy faithfulness round about thee Hebrew, and thy faithfulness is round about thee, encompassing and adorning thee like a girdle. It appears in all thy paths and actions, in thy words and works. Thou rulest the raging of the sea Giving commands, and setting bounds to its waves when they are most impetuous and unruly. Thou hast broken Rahab Egypt, as Psalms 87:4. As one that is slain Thou didst wound them not slightly, but unto death.
