Psalms 62:8 - Exposition

Trust in him at all times, ye people. It is characteristic of David to join the "people" with himself in all his fears and in all his hopes. Even at the worst times, God had always some faithful ones in Israel—a "remnant" ( Isaiah 1:9 ); and men of this sort clung to David through all his perils, and were sufficiently numerous to constitute a "people" (see 2 Samuel 18:1-6 ). Pour out your heart before him (comp. Psalms 42:4 ; Psalms 142:2 , etc.): God is a Refuge for us (comp. Psalms 62:7 ).
