Salmos 132:10 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 132:10

For thy servant David's sake
Not for any virtues, or excellencies or merits, of David, literally understood; rather for the sake of the covenant and promises made with him: but for the sake of the antitypical David, the Messiah, the son of David according to the flesh, and the servant of the Lord as Mediator; for whose sake, and in whose name, prayers and supplications are made and presented;

turn not away the face of thine anointed;
not David; rather Solomon, as the Targum expresses it; so Jarchi: but any of the Lord's anointed, every Christian, or believer in Christ, is an anointed one; and has received the unction from the Holy One, the oil of true grace. And the request is, that God would not turn such away from him, and cause them to depart from his throne of grace, ashamed and disappointed; but hear and answer their petitions, for his Son's sake. In ( 2 Chronicles 6:42 ) ; it is added, "remember the mercies of David thy servant"; the kind and good things promised to him, and perform them.

Salmos 132:10 In-Context

8 Levanta-te, Senhor, entra no lugar do teu repouso, tu e a arca da tua força.

9 Vistam-se os teus sacerdotes de justiça, e exultem de júbilo os teus santos.

10 Por amor de Davi, teu servo, não rejeites a face do teu ungido.

11 O Senhor jurou a Davi com verdade, e não se desviará dela: Do fruto das tuas entranhas porei sobre o teu trono.

12 Se os teus filhos guardarem o meu pacto, e os meus testemunhos, que eu lhes hei de ensinar, também os seus filhos se assentarão perpetuamente no teu trono.
