Was not the Psalm composed, when some of those Enemies, began to take heart again, and threaten a Disturbance to the Tranquility of David's Kingdom, to which he was confident, in the foregoing Psalm, they ⟨p. 250⟩could never give an overthrow? Dr. Patrick who makes this conjecture, yet adds, That the Psalm ought in a more sublime sense to be applied unto the stability of our SAVIOUR's Kingdom. The Jews themselves do acknowledge this matter, to be prophesied in this, and all the Psalms that follow, unto the Hundredth.
