 Circe Invidiosa (Envious Circe) - (1892) John William Waterhouse (1849-1917) Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood Style Art Gallery of South Australia, Adelaide, South Australia, Australia Image Source: Wikipedia> [ Illustration: Circe, in the painting above, was motivated by envy -- envy of her rival, Scylla. Waterhouse depicts her as she pours out the potion which will soon poison and transform her rival into a hideous monster. Scylla found no deliverer; but David's deliverer was the LORD. ] SPECIAL NOTE: [ I will again be working through the Scriptures from Genesis to Revelation. I will be adding links, resources, images, and the like, upgrading the former work-through which began with the 2013-10-12 posting which can be found, along with the full Genesis to Revelation postings, in the Archive Page. Postings will be at midnight Eastern Time, as I am able. However, no chapters will be skipped, even though a posting may be late. And all postings will be housed in the Archive Page. ] Explanation: In Psalm 13, David begins the Psalm in anxiety because of the danger posed to him by his enemies. He ends in the assurance of God's mercy. It refers to a time of persecution and danger for David such as those under Saul or Absalom. David faced imminent danger, as described below. Throughout his life, many of David's enemies were motivated by envy (as was the case with the enemies of Christ). David begins by asking the LORD how long he will forget him. Will it be forever? He asks how long the LORD he will hide his face from him. He asks how long he will commune with the sorrow in his heart. He asks how long his enemy will be exalted over him. These are the expression of someone who is deeply afflicted, feels powerless, and realizes that the only one who can help him (the LORD) is not answering him (1-2). He pleads with the LORD his God to hear him and to give him light before he dies. He is fearful that his enemies will triumph over him and rejoice when he is shaken out of his place (3-4). But reassurance came, and David's confidence returned, allowing him to trust in the LORD's mercy and to expect to be able to rejoice in God's deliverance. Moreover, he expected to be able to sing because of God's bountiful care of him (5-6). [ Sermons: William Still. Joe Morecraft III.

I have attempted to list conservative, scholarly resources. However, some providers use liberal or liberal-influenced commentaries such as the Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges (in Bible Hub). Such commentaries are undoubtedly included by the provider for the wealth of useful information and comments which they provide. By consulting several commentaries, it should be fairly easy to sort out the wheat from the chaff. If, however, you would like personal assistance, write to me at AD LIB ARTS EMAIL.

[Some commentators take the Psalm in Habakkuk 3 to be a standard model for the Psalms. Habakkuk's Psalm begins with the name of the composer (Habakkuk) and a musical notation ("upon Shigionoth"). It closes with a dedication or a "send to" notice ("To the chief singer on my stringed instruments"). I have arranged similar material, where it is found in the Psalter, in accord with the model in Habakkuk.]
