Commentary on Psalms 32:4

Theological / Devotional

Thy hand was heavy. David is referring to the proddings of a guilty conscience.

Moisture. Life forces. The Hebrew of this sentence is obscure. The LXX presents a very different reading, “I became thoroughly miserable while a thorn was fastened in me.”

Selah. See p. 629.
