Context of Psalms 18:49

Commentaries on Psalms 18:49

• Adam Clarke Bible Commentary · v. 49WilI I give thanks unto thee - among the heathen - Quoted by St. Paul, Romans 15:9, to prove that the calling of the Gentiles was predicted, and that what then took place was the fulfillment of that prediction.

• Jamieson–Fausset–Brown Commentary · v. 49-5049-50. Paul (Ro 15:9) quotes from this doxology to show that under the Old Testament economy, others than the Jews were regarded as subjects of that spiritual government of which David was head, and in which character his deliverances and victories were typical of the more illustrious triumphs of David's greater Son. The language of Psa 18:50 justifies this view in its distinct allusion to the great promise (compare 2Sa 7:12). In all David's successes he…Read the comment
