Psalm 22
1. David complains in great discouragement
9. He prays in great distress
23. He praises God














I will proclaim Your name
This phrase begins with a declaration of intent to make known the name of God. The Hebrew word for "proclaim" is "saphar," which means to recount or declare. In the context of Psalm 22, this proclamation is not just a mere mention but a detailed recounting of God's character and deeds. The "name" of God in Hebrew culture is more than a label; it represents His nature, authority, and reputation. This proclamation is an act of worship and testimony, reflecting a deep personal experience of God's deliverance and faithfulness.

to my brothers
The term "brothers" here, translated from the Hebrew "ach," signifies more than just biological siblings. It encompasses the community of faith, the people of Israel, and by extension, the spiritual family of believers. This communal aspect highlights the importance of sharing God's works and character within the faith community, fostering unity and mutual encouragement. Historically, this reflects the Jewish tradition of communal worship and testimony, where God's acts are celebrated collectively.

I will praise You
"Praise" in this context is derived from the Hebrew word "halal," which means to boast or celebrate. This is not a quiet or reserved acknowledgment but an exuberant expression of admiration and gratitude. The act of praising God is central to the life of a believer, serving as both a response to His goodness and a means of drawing others into worship. This phrase underscores the personal commitment to honor God publicly, reinforcing the psalmist's role as a leader in worship.

in the assembly
The "assembly" refers to the gathering of God's people, often translated from the Hebrew "qahal," which denotes a congregation or community. This setting is significant as it emphasizes the corporate nature of worship and the importance of communal expressions of faith. In ancient Israel, the assembly was a place of teaching, worship, and communal decision-making, reflecting the integral role of community in spiritual life. This phrase invites believers to consider the power of collective worship and the shared experience of God's presence.

(22) I will declare.--For the application of this verse in Hebrews 2:12, see New Testament Commentary.

Verse 22. - I will declare thy Name unto my brethren. The thought of the brethren is uppermost. As, when the body was removed, loving messages were at once sent to the disciples (Matthew 28:10; John 20:17), so, with the soul of the Redeemer in the intermediate state, the "brethren" are the first care. God's Name, and all that he has done - the acceptance of the sacrifice, the effectuation of man's salvation - shall be made known to them (see Hebrews 2:9-12). In the midst of the congregation will I praise thee. He will join with them in praising and adoring his Father, so soon as circumstances allow (compare the Eucharist at Emmaus, Luke 24:30).
