Bible Comments

Psalms 105:15 [Saying], Touch not mine anointed, and do my prophets no harm.

Ver. 15. Touch not mine anointed, &c.] This God speaketh not of kings, but to kings, concerning his people who have an unction from the Father, being sanctified and set apart for his peculiar. To touch these is to touch the apple of God's eye, Zechariah 2:8; they are sacred persons.

And do my prophets no harm] The patriarchs were such, Genesis 20:7, so are still all godly ministers, whom they who harm by word or deed have not so much knowledge as Pilate's wife had in a dream. See Psalms 14:4 .
