Salmi 49:4 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 49:4

I will incline mine ear to a parable
In which way of speaking the doctrines of the Gospel were delivered out by Christ, ( Matthew 13:3 Matthew 13:35 ) . Wherefore the prophet, representing his apostles and disciples, signifies that he would listen thereunto, that he might attain to the knowledge thereof, and communicate it to others;

I will open my dark saying upon the harp;
the enigmas, riddles, and mysteries of the Gospel, being understood by the ministers of it, are opened and explained in a very pleasant and delightful manner; they are made clear and evident, and are as a lovely song upon a harp; see ( Ezekiel 33:32 ) .

Salmi 49:4 In-Context

2 Plebei e nobili, ricchi e poveri tutti insieme.
3 La mia bocca proferirà cose savie, e la meditazione del mio cuore sarà piena di senno.
4 Io presterò l’orecchio alle sentenze, spiegherò a suon di cetra il mio enigma.
5 Perché temerei ne’ giorni dell’avversità quando mi circonda l’iniquità dei miei insidiatori,
6 i quali confidano ne’ loro grandi averi e si gloriano della grandezza delle loro ricchezze?
