Salmos 69:8 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 69:8

I am become a stranger unto my brethren
Not only to the Jews in general, who were his own people and nation, to whom he came, and of whom he came; who received him not, hid as it were their faces from him, and rejected him as the Messiah; but also to such who were still nearer akin to him, according to the flesh, who did not believe in him, ( John 7:5 ) ; and even in some sense to his disciples and followers; some of which having heard some doctrines delivered by him not agreeable to them, withdrew from him, and walked no more with him, ( John 6:60 John 6:66 ) ; yea, to his apostles, whom he often called his brethren: one of these betrayed him, another denied him with oaths and cursing, and all of them forsook him and fled, when he was taken by his enemies, and about to suffer death;

and an alien unto my mother's children;
which is the same as before, in other words. The Targum is,

``as the son of the Gentiles to my mother's children;''

that is, as an Heathen to them; see ( Matthew 18:17 ) .

Salmos 69:8 In-Context

6 Não sejam envergonhados por minha causa aqueles que esperam em ti, ó Senhor Deus dos exércitos; não sejam confundidos por minha causa aqueles que te buscam, ó Deus de Israel.

7 Porque por amor de ti tenho suportado afrontas; a confusão me cobriu o rosto.

8 Tornei-me como um estranho para os meus irmãos, e um desconhecido para os filhos de minha mãe.

9 Pois o zelo da tua casa me devorou, e as afrontas dos que te afrontam caíram sobre mim.

10 Quando chorei e castiguei com jejum a minha alma, isto se me tornou em afrontas.
