Commentary on Psalms 86:16
Theological / DevotionalTurn. See Ps. 85:3, 4; cf. Ps. 25:16.
Thy strength. Compare Ps. 71:16; 2 Cor. 12:9.
The son of thine handmaid. The poet’s tender allusion to his mother (see Ps. 116:16; cf. 2 Tim. 1:5). Possibly there is in this verse a suggestion of the psalmist’s hope that God will remember and answer the prayers of a devout mother for her son.
