Commentary on Psalms 77:10

Theological / Devotional

My infirmity. The psalmist does not find fault with God, but recognizes his own inability to understand God’s ways, his own weakness of spirit.

Years. Heb. shenoth. The word may be interpreted as either “years” or “changing.” If it is interpreted as “years,” the sense of the verse appears to be: “This is my grief, that the very remembrance of God’s help in times past increases my sorrow and perplexity.” If the word is interpreted as “changing,” the sense appears to be: “It is my grief that the right hand of the Most High has changed” (RSV); in which case the psalmist is perplexed because he fails to see God dealing with him as He had dealt with him in times past.
