The saints sacrifice

Here the Prophet useth the plural number thus, ^tcup of salvations, whereby after the Hebrew elegance, he meaneth ²many deliverances one after another: or some great and extraordinary deliverance which was in stead of many, or which comprised many under it. ^*The word translated take properly signifieth to lift up, and in that respect may the more fitly be applied to the forementioned taking of the festival cup, and lifting it up before the guests. ^uMost of our later Expositors of this Psalm apply this phrase, I will take the cup of salvation, to the forenamed gratulatory drink-offering, or to the taking and lifting up of the cup of blessing in the feast, after the solemn sacrifice. Both of these import one and the same thing, which is, that Saints of old were wont to testify their gratefulness for great deliverances with some outward solemn rite.
