 | "The image is
essentially military as the language of victory over enemies suggests. It
may be a challenge to the preacher to address the use of such language in
Scripture. However, at least in this instance we should note that the
enemies described in this psalm are not only political and military ones
(v. 12a) but cosmic forces (v. 22) and even death itself (v. 20)." |
