Psalm 61:3 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 61:3

For thou hast been a shelter for me
Or "refuge" F25, from avenging justice; a hiding place and covert from the storms and tempests of divine wrath; a shadow and a screen from the heat of Satan's fiery darts, and the blast of his terrible temptations, ( Isaiah 25:4 ) ;

[and] a strong tower from the enemy:
from Satan the devouring lion, from furious persecutors, and every other enemy; see ( Proverbs 18:10 ) ; and this experience the psalmist had of protection from the Rock in former times made him desirous of being led to it now.

F25 (hoxm) "asylum", Tigurine version, Vatablus; "perfagium", Cocceius; "refugium", Michaelis.

Psalm 61:3 In-Context

1 Ouve, ó Deus, o meu clamor; atende � minha oração.
2 Desde a extremidade da terra clamo a ti, estando abatido o meu coração; leva-me para a rocha que é mais alta do que eu.
3 Pois tu és o meu refúgio, uma torre forte contra o inimigo.
4 Deixa-me habitar no teu tabernáculo para sempre; dá que me abrigue no esconderijo das tuas asas.
5 Pois tu, ó Deus, ouviste os meus votos; deste-me a herança dos que temem o teu nome.
