Commentary on Psalms 28:5

Theological / Devotional

Works. God’s doings in creation and in His providences (see Rom. 1:18–20). The wicked will be destroyed, not because of their malice toward the psalmist, but because of their malice toward God, which is revealed in their disregard of the evidences of His sovereignty in the natural world and in His dealings with men (see Ps. 8).

Destroy. Heb. haras, “throw down,” “tear down” (see Jer. 24:6).
