Commentary on Psalms 10:4
Theological / DevotionalCountenance. Pride shows on the face.
God is not in all his thoughts. Literally, “nothingness of God, all his thoughts.” The RSV translates the clause “all his thoughts are, ‘There is no God.’” The idea here expressed is not necessarily that the wicked denies the existence of God, but that he does not take God into his reckoning. However, today it is true that the wicked tries to make himself believe that there is no God. Constant self-assertion of the idea practically makes him an atheist, although it is to be doubted whether it is really possible for any man to be an absolute atheist. The wicked man acts as if there were no God, thus practically denying His existence. Verse 11 shows that he has some thoughts of God.
