Context of Psalms 22:23

21Save me from the lion’s mouth: for thou hast heard me from the horns of the unicorns. 22I will declare thy name unto my brethren: in the midst of the congregation will I praise thee. Ye that fear Yhwh, praise him; all ye the seed of Jacob, glorify him; and fear him, all ye the seed of Israel. 24For he hath not despised nor abhorred the affliction of the afflicted; neither hath he hid his face from him; but when he cried unto him, he heard. 25My praise shall be of thee in the great congregation: I will pay my vows before them that fear him.

Commentaries on Psalms 22:23

• Adam Clarke Bible Commentary · v. 23Ye that fear the Lord - This is an exhortation to the Jews particularly, to profit by the preaching of the Gospel.

• Barnes’ Notes on the Bible · v. 23Ye that fear the Lord - A phrase denoting those who are pious.

He declares his purpose to celebrate God's gracious dealings and publish His manifested perfections ("name," Psa 5:11), &c., and forthwith he invites the pious (those who have a reverential fear of God) to unite in special praise for a deliverance, illustrating God's kind regard for the lowly, whom men neglect [Psa 22:24]. To hide the face (or eyes) expresses a studied neglect of one's cause, and refusal of aid or sympathy (compare Psa 30:7; Is…Read the comment
