10 He bowed the heavens also, and came down; and darkness was under his feet.
10 He parted the heavens and came down; dark clouds were under his feet.
10 He bowed the heavens and came down; thick darkness was under his feet.
10 he lowered the sky. He stepped down; under his feet an abyss opened up.
10 He bowed the heavens also, and came down With darkness under His feet.
10 He opened the heavens and came down; dark storm clouds were beneath his feet.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on 2 Samuel 22:10
Chapter Contents
David's psalm of thanksgiving.
This chapter is a psalm of praise; we find it afterwards nearly as 2 Timothy 4:18. Those who receive signal mercies from God, ought to give him the glory. In the day that God delivered David, he sang this song. While the mercy is fresh, and we are most affected with it, let the thank-offering be brought, to be kindled with the fire of that affection. All his joys and hopes close, as all our hopes should do, in the great Redeemer.
