Psalm 109:14 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 109:14

Let the iniquity of his fathers be remembered with the Lord,
&c.] Not of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; who, though they had their failings, they were not remembered, and much less punished in their posterity, but were forgiven: rather of the Amorites and Hittites; the one being said to be the father, and the other the mother, of the Jews, ( Ezekiel 16:3 ) , they succeeding them in their land, and imitating their example, and committing the same sins they did: or rather of their wicked ancestors, who killed the prophets; and the measure of whose sins Judas and the Jews filled up in crucifying Christ, see ( Matthew 23:31 Matthew 23:32 ) . The iniquity of these may be said to be remembered, it not being forgiven, when it was brought to account, and punished in their posterity, doing the same wicked actions; compare with this ( Revelation 16:19 ) ( 18:5 ) .

And let not the sin of his mother be blotted out:
or forgiven; but stand as a debt to be accounted for: meaning not the sin of his mother Eve, nor of his immediate parent; but either of the Hittite as before, or of the synagogue of the Jews, or Jerusalem, which killed the prophets of the Lord.

Psalm 109:14 In-Context

12 No tenga quien le haga misericordia; ni haya quien tenga compasión de sus huérfanos

13 Su posteridad sea talada; en segunda generación sea raído su nombre

14 Venga en memoria cerca del SEÑOR la iniquidad de sus padres, y el pecado de su madre no sea borrado

15 Estén siempre delante del SEÑOR, y él corte de la tierra su memoria

16 Por cuanto no se acordó de hacer misericordia, y persiguió al varón pobre en espíritu, y menesteroso, y quebrantado de corazón, para matarlo
