Torrey, [ca. 1880]\nOverview\nPsa 79:1, The psalmist complains of the desolation of Jerusalem; Psa 79:8, He prays for deliverance; Psa 79:13, and promises thankfulness.\nThis Psalm is supposed, with much probability, to have been written on the destruction of the city and temple of Jerusalem by Nebuchadnezzar.\nof Asaph: or, for Asaph, Psa 74:1 *title, marg:\nthe heathen: Psa 74:3, Psa 74:4, Psa 80:12, Psa 80:13; Kg2 21:12-16, Kg2 25:4-10; Ch2 36:3, Ch2 36:4, Ch2 36:6, Ch2 36:7, Ch2 36:17; Luk 21:24; Rev 11:2\ninto: Psa 74:2, Psa 78:71; Exo 15:17; Isa 47:6\nholy: Psa 74:7, Psa 74:8; Kg2 24:13; Lam 1:10; Eze 7:20, Eze 7:21, Eze 9:7\nhave laid: Kg2 25:9, Kg2 25:10; Ch2 36:19; Jer 26:18, Jer 39:8, Jer 52:13; Mic 3:12\nJer 7:33, Jer 15:3, Jer 16:4, Jer 34:20\nTheir: Psa 79:10; Mat 23:35; Rom 8:36; Rev 16:6, Rev 17:6, Rev 18:24\nand there: etc. Either there was no friend or relation left to bury them, or none was allowed to perform this last sad office. The despotism of eastern princes often proceeds to such a degree of extravagance as to fill the mind with astonishment and horror. In Morocco, no person dares to bury the body of a malefactor without an order from the emperor; and Windus, speaking of a man who was to have been sawn in two, informs us, that \"his body must have remained to be eaten by the dogs, if the emperor had not pardoned him.\" Psa 141:7; Jer 8:1, Jer 8:2, Jer 14:16, Jer 15:3, Jer 16:4, Jer 25:33, Jer 34:20; Rev 11:9\nbecome: Psa 44:13, Psa 44:14, Psa 80:6, Psa 89:41; Deu 28:37; Jer 24:9, Jer 25:18, Jer 42:18; Lam 2:15, Lam 2:16; Lam 5:1; Eze 35:12, Eze 36:3, Eze 36:15\nscorn: Kg1 9:7; Neh 2:19, Neh 4:1-4\nHow long: Psa 13:1, Psa 13:2, Psa 74:1, Psa 74:9, Psa 74:10, Psa 80:4, Psa 89:46; Rev 6:10\nwilt: Psa 85:5, Psa 103:9; Isa 64:9; Mic 7:18\njealousy: Deu 29:20, Deu 32:16, Deu 32:22; Eze 36:5; Zep 1:18, Zep 3:8\nPour: Psa 69:24; Isa 42:25; Rev. 16:1-21\nupon: Isa. 13:1-22, 21:1-17, 23:1-18; Jer 10:25, Jer 25:29, 46:1-51:64\nnot known: Psa 9:16, Psa 9:17; Isa 45:4, Isa 45:5; Joh 16:3, Joh 17:25; Act 17:23; Rom 1:28; Th2 1:8\nnot called: Psa 14:4, Psa 53:4, Psa 145:18; Rom 10:12-14; Co1 1:2\nFor they: Psa 80:13; Isa 9:12; Jer 50:7, Jer 51:34, Jer 51:35; Zac 1:15\nlaid: Ch2 36:21; Isa 24:1-12, Isa 64:10, Isa 64:11\nremember: Psa 25:7, Psa 130:3; Exo 32:34; Kg1 17:18; Isa 64:9; Hos 8:13, Hos 9:9; Rev 18:5\nformer iniquities: or, the iniquities of them that were before us, Gen 15:16; Eze 2:3; Dan 9:16; Mat 23:32-36\nlet thy: Psa 21:3, Psa 69:16, Psa 69:17\nwe are: Psa 106:43, Psa 116:6, Psa 142:6; Deu 28:43\nfor the: Psa 115:1; Ch2 14:11; Mal 2:2; Eph 1:6\npurge: Psa 25:11, Psa 65:3; Dan 9:9, Dan 9:19\nfor thy: Jos 7:9; Isa 43:25, Isa 48:9; Jer 14:7, Jer 14:21; Eze 20:9, Eze 20:14\nWherefore: Psa 42:3, Psa 42:10, Psa 115:2; Joe 2:17; Mic 7:10\nlet him: Psa 9:16, Psa 58:11, Psa 83:17, Psa 83:18; Exo 6:7, Exo 7:5; Eze 36:23, Eze 39:21, Eze 39:22\nrevenging: Heb. vengeance, Rom 12:19\nsighing: Psa 12:5, Psa 69:33, Psa 102:20; Exo 2:23, Exo 2:24; Isa 42:7\naccording: Psa 146:6, Psa 146:7; Num 14:17-19; Mat 6:13; Eph 3:20\nthy power: Heb. thine arm, Isa 33:2\npreserve thou those that are appointed to die: Heb. reserve the children of death, Psa 102:20 *marg.\nrender: Gen 4:15; Lev 26:21, Lev 26:28; Isa 65:5-7; Jer 32:18; Luk 6:38\nwherewith: See note on Psa 44:16, and see note on Psa 74:18-22.\nthy people: Psa 74:1, Psa 95:7, Psa 100:3\nwe will: Psa 45:17, Psa 74:18, Psa 74:22, Psa 145:4; Isa 43:21\nall generations: Heb. generation and generation","title":"Treasury of Scriptural Knowledge: Psalms: Psalms Chapter 79","type":"page"}
