Psalms 109:27 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 109:27

That they may know that this is thy hand
Which inflicted vengeance, and executed judgments on Judas and the Jews, as before imprecated: so the Targum,

``that they may know that this is thy stroke;''

or which was concerned in all the sorrows and sufferings of the Messiah, which could never have come upon him had it not been the will of God; it was his hand and council that determined it, or men could never have effected it; see ( Acts 4:28 ) ( John 19:11 ) , or which wrought deliverance and salvation as before prayed for; see ( Psalms 118:21-23 ) .

That thou, Lord, hast done it:
one or other, or all the above things; the finger of God was to be seen in them; particularly in the sufferings of Christ, and in his exaltation; see ( Acts 2:23 ) ( 5:31 ) .

Psalms 109:27 In-Context

25 I am a joke to people everywhere; when they see me, they shake their heads in scorn.

26 Help me, O LORD my God! Save me because of your unfailing love.

27 Let them see that this is your doing, that you yourself have done it, LORD .

28 Then let them curse me if they like, but you will bless me! When they attack me, they will be disgraced! But I, your servant, will go right on rejoicing!

29 May my accusers be clothed with disgrace; may their humiliation cover them like a cloak.
