Salmos 104:22 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 104:22

The sun ariseth, they gather themselves together
Having gone some one way, some another, seeking their prey; but upon the sun's rising gather together in order to return from whence they came, abhorring the light of the sun, as some creatures do, and fearing being hunted and taken by men, the fear of whom is still in some measure upon the beasts of the field, ( Genesis 9:2 ) . So wicked men do not care for the light of the day, nor do false teachers choose to come to the light of the word; these owls and bats, these, as Tertullian calls them; and Satan himself chooses to set upon persons when they are in darkness, and in melancholy and disconsolate frames; and is afraid of believers, when they put on the armour of light, especially the shield of faith, and resist him with it, then he flees from them.

And lay them down in their dens;
for rest and safety, and to feed themselves and young ones with the ravin they bring with them; see ( Song of Solomon 4:8 ) ( Nahum 2:12 ) .

Salmos 104:22 In-Context

20 Trazes trevas, e cai a noite,quando os animais da floresta vagueiam.

21 Os leões rugem à procura da presa,buscando de Deus o alimento,

22 mas ao nascer do sol eles se vãoe voltam a deitar-se em suas tocas.

23 Então o homem sai para o seu trabalho,para o seu labor até o entardecer.

24 Quantas são as tuas obras, SENHOR!Fizeste todas elas com sabedoria!A terra está cheia de seres que criaste.
