Psalms 57:3 - Coke's Commentary on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

He shall send from heaven, and save me, &c.— He will send from heaven, and save me: He defieth him who cometh upon me with open mouth: God shall send forth his favour and truth: though I lie with my soul among lions: Psalms 57:4. The sons of men are all on fire: their teeth spears, &c. Mudge. Others read, He hath put to shame him who would swallow me up, &c. Psalms 57:4. My soul, I lie among lions: the sons of men are set on fire, their teeth are spears, &c. compare Psalms 59:7. The reader will observe, that mercy and truth are here poetically represented as ministers of God; standing in his presence, ready to execute his pleasure, and employed by him in the salvation of his people.
