Psalms 124:8 - John Trapp Complete Commentary

Bible Comments

Our help [is] in the name of the LORD, who made heaven and earth.

Ver. 8. Our help is in the name of the Lord, &c.] Experience should breed confidence, Romans 5:4,5 2 Corinthians 1:10 Psa 48:14 Genesis 22:10,11, &c.; write up experiences therefore, oft rub them over, and then conclude as here, and as Philippians 1:6 2 Timothy 4:17,18 .

Who hath made heaven and earth] God's power is the prop of our faith, and pricks on to prayer; commit we ourselves to him as to a faithful Creator, 1 Peter 4:19, of infinite might and mercy; and say, as those good souls, as Aben Ezra, Hitherto God hath helped us; he hath, and therefore he will, &c.
