Psalms 22:24 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

He hath not despised: I was despised by the people, Psalms 22:6, but not by God. Nor abhorred, i.e. he did not turn away his face from it, as men do from things which they abhor, but looked upon it with compassion. Neither hath he hid his face from him, to wit, for ever; for he did so for a time; but now, saith he, he hath lift up upon me the light of his countenance.

Psalms 22:24

24 For he hath not despised nor abhorred the affliction of the afflicted; neither hath he hid his face from him; but when he cried unto him, he heard.
