Psalms 109:25 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 109:25

I became also a reproach unto them
Or they reproached him; not only in life, traducing his conversation, blaspheming his miracles, calling him a Samaritan, saying he had a devil, and charging him with sedition; but at the time of his death they reviled him, and treated him in the most opprobrious manner.

When they looked upon me, they shaked their heads;
which was verified in the Jews as they passed by the cross of Christ, whither they came to stare upon him and scoff at him, ( Matthew 27:39 ) .

Psalms 109:25 In-Context

23 Like a lengthening shadow I am passing away; I am shaken off like a locust.

24 My knees {buckle} from fasting, and my body grows lean without fat.

25 And [so] I am a disgrace to them; [when] they see me, they shake their heads.

26 Help me, O Yahweh my God; save me according to your loyal love,

27 that they may know that this [is] your hand, [that] you, O Yahweh, you have done it.
