An urgent appeal for Jehovah's judgment
Psalm 35 is an urgent appeal for the judgment of Jehovah against
relentless and insidious persecutors who seek after the soul of the
righteous. Insult, craft, violence, all were used against him. They
pretended to have found him out. Deliverance is sought that Jehovah
may be praised in the great congregation, that is, the full
assembly of restored Israel. In verses 13, 14, we see the grace in
which the godly (Christ Himself) dealt with these enemies. Though
generally true of the godly, Christ specially comes in here in
spirit.
