Psalms 94
1 The prophet, calling for justice, complains of tyranny and impiety.
8 He teaches God's providence.
12 He shews the blessedness of affliction.
16 God is the defender of the afflicted.
[A.M. 3416. B.C. 588. (Title.)]
Dr. Delaney supposes that this Psalm was written by David on occasion of his war with the Ammonites, in consequence of the indignities shewn to his messengers; but it is more probable that it was written to bewail the destruction of Jerusalem and the temple.
