I will be adding links, resources, images, and the like, upgrading the former work-through which began with the 2013-10-12 posting which can be found, along with the full Genesis to Revelation postings, in the Archive Page. Postings will be at midnight Eastern Time, as I am able. However, no chapters will be skipped, even though a posting may be late. And all postings will be housed in the Archive Page. ] Explanation: In Psalm 64, David prays for deliverance from the wicked and predicts their doom at the hand of God. The occasion for the Psalm is unknown; but the two most troublesome times in David's life came at the hands of Saul and of Absalom. David asks God to hear his voice, to preserve his life from fear of the enemy, and to hide him from the secret counsel and the insurrection of the wicked workers of iniquity. He notes that they whet their tongue like a sword, and bend their bow to shoot their bitter words like arrows that they might brazenly shoot in secret at one who is upright They encourage themselves in evil and lay snares. They diligently make evil plans out of the depths of an evil heart (1-6). But (against such archers) God himself will shoot arrows, wounding them suddenly. Indeed their own tongue will slay them; and those who see it will flee. Everyone will fear God and declare his works because they will wisely consider his deeds. The righteous will be glad in the LORD; they shall trust him; and they shall glory (7-10). [ Sermons: Richard Phillips. George Robertson.

I have attempted to list conservative, scholarly resources. However, some providers use liberal or liberal-influenced commentaries such as the Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges (in Bible Hub). Such commentaries are undoubtedly included by the provider for the wealth of useful information and comments which they provide. By consulting several commentaries, it should be fairly easy to sort out the wheat from the chaff. If, however, you would like personal assistance, write to me at AD LIB ARTS EMAIL.

[Some commentators take the Psalm in Habakkuk 3 to be a standard model for the Psalms. Habakkuk's Psalm begins with the name of the composer (Habakkuk) and a musical notation ("upon Shigionoth"). It closes with a dedication or a "send to" notice ("To the chief singer on my stringed instruments"). I have arranged similar material, where it is found in the Psalter, in accord with the model in Habakkuk.]
