Psalms 52:7 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

The man: these are the triumphant words of the righteous. This is the great and famous man, take special notice of him, and of his doleful end. That made not God his strength that trusted and feared Saul more than God, and was willing to purchase Saul's favour with God's displeasure. Trusted in the abundance of his riches; thought himself secure in his great and growing wealth, without God's protection or blessing.

Psalms 52:7

7 Lo, this is the man that made not God his strength; but trusted in the abundance of his riches, and strengthened himself in his wickedness.b
