Notes on Chapter 140

Psa. 140:Titlea| Psalm| Psa. 3 title

Psa. 140:11| Deliver
| Psalms 140145 are David’s final prayers. These psalms do not contain great or important matters, but as David’s prayers (especially in vv. 6-7; 141:3, 5b; 142:3a, 5; 143:2b, 6, 8, 9b-10; and 144:1-2, 5a, 12-15) they are full of the expressions of his intimacy with God. However, as in earlier psalms written by David, four of these six psalms are also full of the principle of good and evil (vv. 9b-13; 141:10; 143:12; 145:20). See note 31 in Psa. 7.
