Summary Of Commentaries Associated With The Selected Verse
| Notes on the Bible, by Albert Barnes, [1834] |
| Let all those that seek thee ... - The only change in this verse from Psa 40:16, is in the insertion of the word "and" in the beginning of the second clause - "and let such as love," etc. |
| Commentary on the Old Testament, by Carl Friedrich Keil and Franz Delitzsch [1857-78] |
| ויאמרו instead of יאמרו is unimportant. But since the divine name Jahve is now for once chosen side by side with Elohim, it certainly had a strong claim to be retained in Psa 70:5. Instead of תּשׁועתך we have ישׁועתך here; instead of עזרתי, here עזרי. And instead of אדני יחשׁב לי we have here אלהים חוּשׁה־לּי - the hope is turned into petition: make haste unto me, is an innovation in expression that is caused by the taking over of the לי. |
| Adam Clarke Commentary on the Whole Bible - Published 1810-1826 |
| Let God be magnified - Let his glory, mercy, and kindness, continually appear in the increase of his own work in the souls of his followers! |

5 But I am poor [06041] and needy [034]: make haste [02363] unto me, O God [0430]: thou art my help [05828] and my deliverer [06403]; O LORD [03068], make no tarrying [0309].
