Comforting himself in God's promises, he craves that help whereon he trusts Respond and save us with Your right hand The phrase "Respond and save us" is a plea for divine intervention and deliverance. In the biblical context, the right hand symbolizes power and authority. The right hand of God is often associated with His strength and ability to save (Exodus 15:6, Psalm 118:16). This imagery is used throughout Scripture to convey God's might and His active role in the salvation of His people. The request for God to "respond" indicates a desire for immediate action, reflecting the urgency and desperation of the situation faced by the psalmist. Historically, the Israelites often found themselves in dire circumstances, surrounded by enemies, and in need of God's powerful intervention. that Your beloved may be delivered Persons / Places / Events 1.

Community of Believers The plea for deliverance is not just individual but communal. The church, as the beloved of God, can unite in prayer for collective deliverance and support.(5) From this verse onward the psalm appears again, with some variations noticed there, in Psalm 108:6-13. (6, 7, 8) These three verses, forming the centre of the poem, are, plainly by their style, of different age and authorship from the beginning. Possibly, indeed, they formed an original poem by themselves, an ancient oracular saying descriptive of the relations of Israel to the tribes bordering on her territory, and were then employed by the compilers of this psalm and Psalms 108, to rouse the drooping spirits of the race in some less fortunate time. (See Introduction.) The speaker is God Himself, who, according to a familiar prophetic figure, appears in the character of a warrior, the captain of Israel, proclaiming the triumphs won through His might by their arms. (Comp. Isaiah 63:1-6.) Here, however, the picture is rather playful than terrible--rather ironic than majestic. The conqueror is returning, as in the passage of Isaiah referred to above, from the battle, but he is not painted "glorious in his apparel, travelling in the greatness of his strength." The fury of the fight, the carnage, the bloodstained garments are all implied, not described. Instead of answering a challenge, as in Isaiah, by a description of the fight, here the champion simply proclaims the result of his victory as he proceeds to disarm and prepare for the bath--figures expressing the utmost contempt for the foe so easily subdued. Verse 5. - That thy beloved may be delivered; save with thy right hand, and hear me; rather, hear us. From complaint (vers. 1-4) the psalmist abruptly turns to prayer, thus closing the first strophe with a gleam of hope.Parallel Commentaries ...
