Psa. 129:51| hate
| Psalm 129 is the praise of a saint, in his going up to Zion, concerning God’s righteous dealing with the persecutors of Israel and the haters of Zion. Here Israel signifies the New Testament believers (Gal. 6:16), and Zion signifies the overcomers in the church (see note 21 in Psa. 48). The more we love the Lord Jesus, the more we will be hated and persecuted (John 15:18-20a).
