Shīpiān 18:40 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 18:40

Thou hast also given me the necks of mine enemies
Either to slay them, or to trample or put a yoke upon them; or rather the sense is, thou hast made them to fly before me, to turn their necks or backs unto me, as the word is used in ( Joshua 7:8 ) ; and it is expressive of an utter rout and vanquishing of them;

that I might destroy them that hate me;
they not being able to face him and stand against him.
