Commentary on Psalms 18:46

Theological / Devotional

The Lord liveth. Verses 46–50 are a solemn ascription of praise and thanksgiving to Jehovah, who has brought David the victory. In view of all that God has done, the psalmist has ample reason for affirming that there is a living God, in contrast with the lifeless gods of the heathen. God’s life is the source of man’s life.

Rock. Heb. ṣur (see on vs. 2, 31).

God of my salvation. A favorite phrase in the psalms (see Ps. 25:5; 27:9; 51:14; cf. Ps. 38:22; 88:1).
