146, 4, will by the predicate to דברי and placed before it: far from my salvation, i.e., far from my being rescued, are the words of my cry; there is a great gulf between the two, inasmuch as God does not answer him though he cries unceasingly. The language here is the taunting language of his enemies, and the meaning is that he had professed to commit himself to the Lord as if he were his friend; he had expressed confidence in God, and he believed that his cause was sate in His hand. רחוק is not to be taken as an apposition of the subject of עזבתני: far from my help, (from) the words of my crying (Riehm); for דברי שׁאגתי would then also, on its part, in connection with the non-repetition of the מן, be in apposition to מישׁועתי. It is not an accusative of the object after Psalm 18:4 (Hitzig), in which case the construction would be continued with ולא יענה. The Hebrew language is a concrete language, which means that words with a concrete meaning are used to express abstract ideas. 1a. Before we get into the meaning of the Hebrew word for “commit,” we need to understand that this verse is written with a chiastic structure, a form of poetry common to Biblical Hebrew, especially the book of Psalms. If God wants him, let him come and save him. Commit thyself unto Jehovah He trusted on the LORD that he would deliver him: let him deliver him, seeing he delighted in him. Now let’s take a look at the word “delight.” This is the Hebrew verb hhapheyts (Strong’s #2654), which Strong’s defines as “properly to incline to; by implication (literally but rarely) to bend; figuratively to be pleased with, desire.” The KJV translates this word as delight, please, desire, will, pleasure, favour, like, move and would. (Note: Eusebius observes on Psalm 22:2 of this Psalm, δικαιοσύνης ὑπάρχων πηγὴ τὴν ἡμετέραν ἁμαρτίαν ἀνέλαβε καὶ εὐλογίας ὢν πέλαγος τὴν ἐπικειμένην ἡμῖν ἐδέξατο κατάραν, and: τὴν ὡρισμένην ἡμῖν παιδείαν ὑπῆλθεν ἑκὼν παιδεία γὰρ ειρήνης ἡμῶν ἐπ ̓ αὐτὸν, ᾗ φησὶν ὁ προφήτης. And Amasa wallowed in blood in the midst of the highway… (KJV, 2 Samuel 20:12) He moveth his tail like a cedar: the sinews of his stones are wrapped together. This Psalm of David is born out of the great distress of the author, who seems to have been falsely accused and attacked. of the lxx, render: Θεέ μου, θεέ μου, ἵνα τί με ἐγκατέλιπες. Let’s attempt a Psalm 22 Summary. Also notice that the words “deliver” and “rescue” are synonyms, words with very similar meanings. Psalm 109:8 “May his days be few; may another take his place of leadership.” Explanation and Commentary of Psalm 109:8. He is hopelessly abandoned by men. And we continued on in that series for about six months ending at Psalm 20 at which point we turned our attention to the book … let him deliver him, seeing he delighted in him; this is another ironical sarcastic flout, not at God, but at Christ, and at his profession of trust in God, his claim of interest in his favour, and of relation to him as being the Son of his love, in whom he was well pleased; he always was the delight of his Father; he expressed his well pleasedness in him at his baptism, and transfiguration on the mount; he took pleasure in him while he was suffering and dying in the room and stead of his people; and he delivered him, raised him from the dead, and brought him into a large place, because he delighted in him, Psalm 18:19; These very words were said by the Jews concerning Christ, as he hung upon the cross, Matthew 27:43. This is another common form of Hebrew poetry called parallelisms. About the ninth hour Jesus cried, after a long and more silent struggle, ἠλί, ἠλί. 2b. That it is, however, God to whom he calls is implied both by the direct address אלהי, and by ולא תענה, since he from whom one expects an answer is most manifestly the person addressed. This means that the words “commit” and “delight” are also synonyms. Nor can it be explained, with Olshausen and Hupfeld, by adopting Aben-Ezra's interpretation, "My God, my God, why hast Thou forsaken me, far from my help? (ASV, Psalm 22:8) 2a. If this is so, say they, let him come and rescue one so dear to himself. In a time where he feels abandoned by God (Psalm 22:1–2), part of his hardship is hearing others mock his pain (Psalm 22:6–7). Of course, these two words are not synonyms in the English language, which means we need to find out what these words mean in the Hebrew language. βρύχημα), is the loud cry extorted by the greatest agony, Psalm 38:9; in this instance, however, as דּברי shows, it is not an inarticulate cry, but a cry bearing aloft to God the words of prayer. I have found the book of Job to be an ancient dictionary to the Ancient Hebrew language. Here is how this verse can be written, showing the chiastic structure. are the words of my crying." [⇑ See verse text ⇑] This statement is being spoken in sarcasm, by David's taunting opponents. (KJV, Job 40:17) (ASV, Psalm 22:8) As I began my investigation into this word and its meaning within the context of the verse, I quickly realized that this verse would make an excellent case study to show how important it is to understand Hebrew vocabulary, poetry and philosophy when studying the Bible. …and they rolled the stone from the well's mouth… (KJV, Genesis 29:3) When His passion reached its climax, days and nights of the like wrestling had preceded it, and what then becomes audible was only an outburst of the second David's conflict of prayer, which grows hotter as it draws near to the final issue.
