Commentary

Commentary on Psalms 32:3

Theological / Devotional

I kept silence. David refused to confess his sin even to himself. For a whole year after his sin in regard to Uriah and Bath-sheba, David lived in apparent security. But he was not free of severe mental conflicts and resultant physical suffering (see Ps. 6:2, 3; 31:9).

Roaring. Heb. she’agah (see on Ps. 22:1).
