Commentary on Psalms 61:3

Theological / Devotional

A shelter. Heb. machseh, “a refuge,” that is, something that offers cover or protection.

Tower. Heb. migdal, usually referring to a man-made elevation, such as a watch-tower in a field (see on Ps. 18:2, in which this idea is amplified in a succession of metaphors).
