Psalm 106:42 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 106:42

Their enemies also oppressed them
By taxes, and taking the increase of their fields and sustenance, which often obliged them to cry for a deliverer, who upon this was sent to them; see ( Judges 2:9 Judges 2:15 ) ( 5:1 ) .

And they were brought into subjection under their hand; or were humbled
under their hand, as the Targum;
they were not only made to submit to their enemies, but they were humbled before the Lord; brought to a sense of their sins, and acknowledgment of them, when the Lord appeared for their deliverance, as follows.

Psalm 106:42 In-Context

40 Onde l’ira del Signore si accese contro al suo popolo, Ed egli abbominò la sua eredità;

41 E li diede in man delle genti; E quelli che li odiavano signoreggiarono sopra loro.

42 E i lor nemici li oppressarono; Ed essi furono abbassati sotto alla lor mano.

43 Egli li riscosse molte volte; Ma essi lo dispettarono co’ lor consigli, Onde furono abbattuti per la loro iniquità.

44 E pure egli ha riguardato, quando sono stati in distretta; Quando ha udito il lor grido;
