James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Psalms 48:1-14
Psalms 38:0 An appeal to God from chastisement because of iniquity (Psalms 38:1-4 ). The mental anguish is described in figures of physical disease, and yet it is not impossible that such disease may have been part of the chastisement (Psalms 38:5-8 ). The desertion of friends and the opposition of enemies also entered into it (Psalms 38:10-17 ).

But glorious things are spoken of thee, thou city of God. Psalms 87:3 . Reader! do not, I pray you,... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Psalms 48:4-7
All the powers of the world were confederate against Israel, when first God made her a church. And all the powers of the world were confederate when first the gospel was made known. Hell hath been up in arms against it from the beginning. But what a final and decisive answer hath Jehovah given to all the foes of the cross, Psalms 2:1 , etc. The distress of foes to the gospel of Christ is here set forth under strong images; as the pains of a woman in travail, willing to flee from the sorrow, but... read more
