Psalm One Hundred and Twenty

{A Song about the Enemies of Peace}
{Verses 1-2: David's Prayer During His Flight from King Saul}
1~~{Title} A Song of Degrees
  {shiyr ma`alah - referring to the degrees on a Sun Dial}
In my {David's} distress,
I cried/'prayed allowed' unto Jehovah/God,
and He answered {`anah} me.

{Note: In I Samuel 20 we see the great friendship between David and his right friend Jonathan - the son of King Saul. Jonathan realized that David was going to be the new King of Israel and not himself. But as a SuperGrace believer, this did not bother him. RBT says this Psalm was written by David after his friend Jonathan had been associated with his reversionistic father - King Saul and Jonathan was killed in battle. David is grieving the loss of his friend.}

{Claim a Promise - Protection from Verbal Sins Against You!}
2~~Deliver/rescue my soul, O Jehovah/God,
from lying lips {referring to a very good liar}
and from a deceitful tongue {a strap on artist}.

{Note: A good liar can lie and you will never know it! Only God can protect you from a good liar trying to strap it on you. Here refers to the lies against David by King Saul and others.}

{Here David is referring to King Saul}
3~~What shall be given unto you {King Saul}?
Or, what shall be 'added unto you'
  {adding calamities to the liar - divine discipline},
you false tongue?

{Deliverance of David}
4~~Sharp arrows of a mighty/hero warrior {gibbowr}
  {Jonathan - who as a great warrior kept his weapons ready for
  action},
with the burning coals of broom/juniper
  {a tree around Jerusalem that when burning burns very hot - refers
  to torture - and here the disciplined soul of a believer in
  reversionism}.

{Note: Whenever David thought of deliverance, he always thinks back to the event of I Samuel 20:20 and following where Jonathan shot arrows as a signal to David to flee from the anger of King Saul.}

{Flight of David}
5~~Woe is me {self-pity and reversionism in David's flight},
that I sojourn/'dwell temporarily' {as a stranger in persecution}
in Mesech
  {northern boundary of Syria - used for Gentiles - living with
  undesirable people},
that I dwell in the tents of Kedar
  {with the nomadic tribesmen - David was like an Arab}!

{Reference to David's time with King Saul}
6~~To long my soul
has had its dwelling
with those who hate peace.

7~~I . . . {am} for peace.
But when I keep on communicating categorically
{for peace} {dabar},
they . . . {are} for war.

{Note: Principal: There are just people in this world for which you can not have peace - no matter what you do. They are implacable! Avoid implacable people if you are smart.}
