Tehillim 107:13 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 107:13

Then they cried unto the Lord in their trouble
Their affliction, their hearts being brought down with labour, and they being and finding themselves in a state of darkness, in the shadow of death, in affliction and iron; or in soul troubles, under a sense of sin, and in a view of wrath and displeasure; under apprehensions of imminent danger, as the disciples in the storm; and therefore cry to the Lord, as they did,

Lord, save us, we perish,
( Matthew 8:2 Matthew 8:5 ) .

And he saved them out of their distresses;
from all their sins; from the curse of the law; from wrath to come; from hell and death; being both able and willing. The following verse further explains this.

Tehillim 107:13 In-Context

11 Because they rebelled against the words of G-d, and despised the atzat Elyon (counsel of the Most High);
12 Therefore He brought down their lev with amal (toil); they stumbled, and there was no ozer (helper).
13 Then they cried out unto Hashem in their tzoros, and He saved them out of their distresses.
14 He brought them out of choshech and tzalmavet, and broke apart their chains.
15 Oh that men would praise Hashem for His chesed, and for His nifla’ot (wonderful works) to the Bnei Adam!
