Psalms 36:11 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 36:11

Let not the foot of pride come against me
Meaning some proud enemy, such an one as Ahithophel, of whom R. Obadiah expounds, it, who lifted up his heel against him; and is applicable to any haughty enemy of Christ and his people, and particularly to antichrist, the man of sin, that exalts himself above all that is called God;

and let not the hand of the wicked remove me;
either from the house of God; or from his throne, that high station and dignity in which he was placed.

Psalms 36:11 In-Context

9 For with you is the fountain of life; in your light we see light.
10 Continue your grace to those who know you and your righteousness to the upright in heart.
11 Don't let the foot of the proud tread on me or the hands of the wicked drive me away.
12 There they lie fallen, those evildoers, flung down and unable to rise.
