Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Psalms 9:1-20
Psalms 9The Septuagint translators combined Psalms 9, 10 into one psalm, even though they are separate in the Hebrew text. Consequently, from this psalm through Psalms 147, the numbering of the psalms in the Roman Catholic versions of the Bible differs from the numbering in the Protestant versions. The Roman Catholic versions follow the Septuagint (Greek) and Vulgate (Latin) versions, whereas the Protestant versions follow the Hebrew Bible. Twice the Septuagint translators combined or... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Psalms 9:7-8
In contrast to those whose names had perished (Psalms 9:5), the Lord’s name would abide forever because He will rule forever as a righteous judge. In view of this, those most in need of a righteous judge to give them justice, namely, the afflicted and the oppressed, may flee to Him in their distress. The basis of hope in prayer is the belief that the Lord rules. read more

John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 9:1-20
Psalms 9, 10 are combined in LXX, and there is certainly a real, though obscure, relationship between them. The two together form one ’acrostic,’ the vv. beginning with the successive letters of the Hebrew alphabet, though in both Pss. there is a gap in the arrangement. The subject matter of the two Pss., however, does not suggest that we have in tbem the two halves of what was originally a single Ps. Psalms 9 is distinctly national and Psalms 10 as distinctly personal, and though both may be... read more

Expositor's Dictionary of Texts - Psalms 9:1-20
Psalms 9:10 The name of God always means, in the Bible, the nature and character of God. Our religion in its very essence necessarily depends upon our conception of the nature and character of our God. Your idea of God, your belief about what He is in nature and character, is bound to colour all your relations to Him. I might, of course, say a great deal about the conception of God which is given to us in the Christian revelation, but for the many things that might be said I shall just now... read more

Expositor's Bible Commentary - Psalms 9:1-20
Psalms 9:1-20Psalms 7:1-17; Psalms 9:1-20 are connected by the recurrence of the two thoughts of God as the Judge of nations and the wicked falling into the pit which he digged. Probably the original arrangement of the Psalter put these two next each other, and Psalms 8:1-9 was inserted later.Psalms 9:1-20 is imperfectly acrostic. It falls into strains of two verses each, which are marked by sequence of thought as well as by the acrostic arrangement. The first begins with Aleph, the second with... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Psalms 9:1-20
Psalms 9-10 God fights for the oppressedIn Psalms 9:0 and 10 we meet another kind of Hebrew verse, the acrostic. (Other acrostics are Psalms 25, 34, 37, 111, 112, 119 and 145.) In an acrostic the first word of each verse (or stanza) begins with a different letter of the 22-letter Hebrew alphabet, moving in order, so to speak, ‘from A to Z’. The acrostic in this case moves unbroken through Psalms 9:0 and 10, indicating that originally they probably formed one psalm. The absence of a heading to... read more
