In the Hebrew text, the word for "many" is "רַבִּים" (rabbim), which conveys a sense of abundance or multitude. This suggests that David is not facing a small or isolated group of adversaries but rather a significant and daunting number. Historically, David faced numerous enemies throughout his life, from King Saul to foreign nations. This phrase can also be seen as a foreshadowing of the spiritual battles that believers face, reminding us that opposition is a common experience for those who follow God. without cause and many hate me without reason Parallel Commentaries ...
