Psalm 35:5 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 35:5

Let them be as chaff before the wind
As they are; see ( Psalms 1:4 ) ;

and let the angel of the Lord chase [them];
either a good angel, who is the Lord's, his creature that ministers unto him, and is ready to obey his orders; and who, as he encamps about the saints and protects them, so he is able to destroy their enemies; as one angel in a night destroyed all the firstborn in Egypt, and another the whole army of the Assyrians, ( Exodus 12:29 ) ( 2 Kings 19:35 ) ; an angel of the Lord, who is swift to fly, and so to chase and overtake, and able to execute whatever is the will of the Lord; or else an evil angel, who is the Lord's, being made by him, though not made evil by him; and who is under his restraints, and can do nothing but by his permission; and who sometimes is employed by the Lord, as the executioner of his wrath upon wicked men; is suffered to distress and torture their consciences in this life, and hereafter drag them into everlasting burnings, prepared for the devil and his angels.

Psalm 35:5 In-Context

3 抽 出 槍 來 ， 擋 住 那 追 趕 我 的 ； 求 你 對 我 的 靈 魂 說 ： 我 是 拯 救 你 的 。

4 願 那 尋 索 我 命 的 ， 蒙 羞 受 辱 ！ 願 那 謀 害 我 的 ， 退 後 羞 愧 ！

5 願 他 們 像 風 前 的 糠 ， 有 耶 和 華 的 使 者 趕 逐 他 們 。

6 願 他 們 的 道 路 又 暗 又 滑 ， 有 耶 和 華 的 使 者 追 趕 他 們 。

7 因 他 們 無 故 地 為 我 暗 設 網 羅 ， 無 故 地 挖 坑 ， 要 害 我 的 性 命 。
