Psalm 107:16 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 107:16

For he hath broken the gates of brass
The prison doors made of brass, as sometimes of iron, for the security of the prisoners; see ( Acts 12:10 ) . And cut the bars of iron in sunder; with which they were barred and secured. Hyperbolical phrases these, as Kimchi, expressing how exceeding strong the prison doors were, and the impossibility of an escape out of them, unless the Lord had delivered them; but when he works, none can let; all obstructions are easily removed by him; which is the sense of the words, see ( Isaiah 45:2 ) . Vitringa, on ( Revelation 12:2 ) , interprets this of the subjection of the Roman emperors to the faith and obedience of Christ.

14 los sacó de las tinieblas y de la sombra de muerte y rompió sus ataduras.

16 Porque El rompió las puertas de bronce e hizo pedazos las barras de hierro.
17 Por causa de sus caminos rebeldes, y por causa de sus iniquidades, los insensatos fueron afligidos.
18 Su alma aborreció todo alimento, y se acercaron hasta las puertas de la muerte.
