Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

For David, when he changed his countenance before Achimelech, who dismissed him, and he went his way. [2] I will bless the Lord at all times, his praise shall be always in my mouth.

2942 B.C.

1062 (Title.) Abimelech. or, Achish. This is the second of the alphabetical Psalm (the first being Ps.

25); each verse beginning consecutively with a letter of the Hebrew alphabet. The verse, however, which begins with [] and which should come in between the fifth and sixth, is totally wanting; but as the

22nd, which now begins with [] 'redeemeth,` is entirely out of the series, it is not improbable that it was originally written oophodeh, `and redeemeth' and occupied that situation, in which connection it reads admirably
