Psalms 124:4 - Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible

Then the waters had overwhelmed us, the stream had gone over our soul: Then the waters had overwhelmed us. So in David's psalm, Psalms 18:16; Psalms 144:7,

The stream had gone over our soul - rather, 'the flood,' as in Psalms 18:4: cf. Psalms 79:2.
