Commentary on Psalms 22:26

Theological / Devotional

Eat. A part of the sacrifices of vows was eaten by the offerer (see Lev. 7:16). In Israel, feasting, as an expression of gratitude, was a part of worship. The meek will share in this meal, and by eating together, will be drawn into unity.

Your. The sudden change from “the meek,” “they” (third person), to “your” (second person) is typically Hebraic, and emphasizes the directness of the address.
