Salmos 80:12

12 ¿Por qué has derribado sus vallados, de modo que la vendimian todos los que pasan de camino?

Salmos 80:12 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 80:12

Why hast thou then broken down her hedges
After having done all this for her; which signifies the Lord's removing his presence, power, and protection, from Israel; which were the hedge he set about them, and by which they were secured and defended from their enemies; but these being gone, they became an easy prey to them; see ( Job 1:10 ) ( Isaiah 5:2 Isaiah 5:5 ) , the hedge about the church and people of God are the angels that encamp about them; salvation, which is as walls and bulwarks to them; and the Lord himself, who is a wall of fire around them; which may be said to be broken down when he withdraws his presence, and does not exert his power in the protection of them; but suffers them to be exposed to the persecutions of men:

so that all they which pass by the way do pluck her?
the hedge being broken down, all passengers and travellers plucked the fruit of the vine as they passed along, there being noticing to keep them off from it: this may denote the plunder of the Israelites by their enemies, when left of God, they fell into their hands; and the havoc persecutors make of the church of Christ, and their spoiling them of their goods and substance, when they are permitted to do it.

Salmos 80:12 In-Context

10 Los montes fueron cubiertos con su sombra, y los cedros de Dios con sus ramas.
11 Extendía sus ramas hasta el mar, y sus renuevos hasta el río.
12 ¿Por qué has derribado sus vallados, de modo que la vendimian todos los que pasan de camino?
13 El puerco montés la devora, y de ella se alimenta todo lo que se mueve en el campo.
14 Oh Dios de los ejércitos, vuelve ahora, te rogamos; mira y ve desde el cielo, y cuida esta vid,
