Not even halfway through the book of Psalms, I have had about all of King David’s ego that I can stand. Charles Spurgeon’s comments on these psalms also annoy me to beat the band.
In this longish psalm, David brags that he is a “wonder to many” and that YAH is his “rock,” because when Dave grows old and gray, YAH won’t throw him out like a mismatched sock.
Yes, my rhyming can be quite wince-inducing, just like the apologetics of the Rev. Spurgeon. YAH “shall increase my greatness,” says Dave, whose pride stinks like a big, rotten sturgeon.
