He praises God with thanksgiving For zeal for Your house The word "zeal" in Hebrew is "קִנְאָה" (qin'ah), which conveys a deep, passionate commitment and fervor. This zeal is not merely enthusiasm but a consuming dedication to God's dwelling place, which in the Old Testament context refers to the temple in Jerusalem. Historically, the temple was the center of Jewish worship and the symbol of God's presence among His people. The psalmist's intense devotion to God's house reflects a heart aligned with God's purposes, echoing the same fervor Jesus displayed when He cleansed the temple (John 2:17), fulfilling this prophetic word. This phrase challenges believers to examine their own passion for God's presence and His church today. has consumed me and the insults of those who insult You have fallen on me And the reproaches.--See St. Paul's application of these words Romans 15:3. If the author had been thinking chiefly of his sin as the cause of the reproach of God, surely he would have said "the reproaches of these that reproach me are fallen upon Thee." The intention seems to be that though in his own eyes a very insignificant and unworthy member of the community, yet being one who burnt with zeal for it, he felt as personally directed against himself all the taunts aimed at Jehovah and His religion. Verse 9. - For the zeal of thine house hath eaten me up. David's "zeal for God's house" was shown, first, in his establishment of the tabernacle on Mount Zion (2 Samuel 6:12-19); next, in his earnest desire to build a permanent and magnificent dwelling for the ark of the covenant (2 Samuel 7:2; Psalm 132:2-5); then, in his careful collection of materials for the building which he was forbidden to erect himself (1 Chronicles 28:11-18; 1 Chronicles 29:2-5); and finally, in the directions that he left to Solomon with respect to it (1 Chronicles 28:9, 10, 20). It was also shown, if we take "house" in a wider sense, by his careful government of the land and people, the kingdom and household of God, for forty years. And the reproaches of them that reproached thee are fallen upon me. David may either mean that every reproach uttered against God was as keenly felt by him as if it had been directed against himself, or that, when men reproached him, they really meant to reproach God (i.e. religion) in him.Parallel Commentaries ...
