Commentary

Matthew Henry’s Complete Commentary on the Bible (1710)

(vv. 19-37)

The covenant God made with David and his seed was mentioned before (Ps. 89:3, 4); but in these verses it is enlarged upon, and pleaded with God, for favour to the royal family, now almost sunk and ruined; yet certainly it looks at Christ, and has its accomplishment in him much more than in David; nay, some passages here are scarcely applicable at all to David, but must be understood of Christ only…

Robert Jamieson, A. R. Fausset, David Brown’s Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary (1871)

(vv. 31)

Nathan is meant (2Sa 7:17; 1Ch 17:3-15). laid help--literally, “given help.” David was chosen and then exalted.
