Salmos 94:5 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 94:5

They break in pieces thy people, O Lord
Not the Israelites, as Kimchi; but the church of Christ, by their anathemas, cruel edicts, and persecutions; by confiscating their goods, imprisoning their persons, putting them to cruel deaths; and by such means think to "wear out" the saints of the most High, the Lord's covenant and peculiar people; which is mentioned as an aggravation of their sin, and as an argument with the Lord to arise on their behalf:

and afflict thine heritage;
the church, styled God's heritage, ( 1 Peter 5:3 ) , whom the Lord has chosen for his inheritance; and are dear to him, as his portion, his jewels, and even as the apple of his eye; and yet these are afflicted all manner of ways by their persecuting enemies, as Israel was of old in Egypt.

Salmos 94:5 In-Context

3 Até quando os ímpios, SENHOR,até quando os ímpios exultarão?
4 Eles despejam palavras arrogantes;todos esses malfeitores enchem-se de vanglória.
5 Massacram o teu povo, SENHOR,e oprimem a tua herança;
6 matam as viúvas e os estrangeiros,assassinam os órfãos
7 e ainda dizem: “O SENHOR não nos vê;o Deus de Jacó nada percebe”.
