Salmos 86:13

13 porque muy grande es tu amor por mí;
me has rescatado de las profundidades de la muerte.

Salmos 86:13 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 86:13

For great is thy mercy toward me
Both in things temporal and spiritual; an instance of which follows:

and thou hast delivered my soul from the lowest hell;
from a very distressed and disconsolate condition, being almost in despair, under a deep sense of sin, and a fearful apprehension of the wrath of God, as, particularly, when he was charged by Nathan; or from hell itself, and the severest punishment in it; from the second and eternal death, which every man is deserving of, and are only delivered from by the grace of God, and blood of Christ: this shows the sense the psalmist had of the just demerit of sin, and his thankfulness for deliverance from it; see ( Psalms 56:13 ) . Kimchi interprets it of the grave; but says, there are some that interpret it of the judgment, or condemnation of hell: such who have escaped great dangers in long and perilous journeys, or have been delivered from threatening diseases, are said to be saved from hell ^F18.

Salmos 86:13 In-Context

11 Enséñame tus caminos, oh Señor
,
para que viva de acuerdo con tu verdad.
Concédeme pureza de corazón,
para que te honre.

12 Con todo el corazón te alabaré, oh Señor mi Dios;
daré gloria a tu nombre para siempre,

13 porque muy grande es tu amor por mí;
me has rescatado de las profundidades de la muerte.

14 Oh Dios, gente insolente se levanta en mi contra;
una pandilla violenta trata de matarme.
No significas nada para ellos.

15 Pero tú, oh Señor,
eres Dios de compasión y misericordia,
lento para enojarte
y lleno de amor inagotable y fidelidad.
