Psalms 118:11 - Albert Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Bible Comments

His own mind dwelt upon it, and the events to which he referred came so vividly to his recollection, and were so important, that he dwells upon them. The subject was worth more than a passing remark. The mind was full, and the language comes from an overflowing heart.

Psalms 118:11

11 They compassed me about; yea, they compassed me about: but in the name of the LORD I will destroy them.
