Commentaries on Psalms 18:50

• Adam Clarke Bible Commentary · v. 50Great deliverance giveth he to his king - David was a king of God's appointment, and was peculiarly favored by him. Literally, He is magnifying the salvations of his king. He not only delivers, but follows up those deliverances with innumerable blessings. Showeth mercy - to David - I have no claim upon his bounty. I deserve nothing from him, but he continues to show mercy. To his seed - His posterity. So the words זרע zera and , in the Old and New…Read the comment

• 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
