Commentary on Psalms 89:45

Theological / Devotional

Hast thou shortened. His youthful vigor has been cut short. The king’s period of prosperity has been diminished.

With shame. The royal line had been reduced to disgrace. Everything in the appearance and circumstances of the king seems to indicate God’s displeasure.

Selah. See p. 629.
