[Psalms 19](/study/psalms/19) [Psalms 21](/study/psalms/21) ## Commentary To verse 1 **To the chief Musician.** See App-64 . **The LORD.** Hebrew. *Jehovah.* See App-4 . **hear** = answer. **name.** Put by Figure of speech *Metonymy* (of Adjunct), App-6 , for the person himself. Occurs three times in this Psalm: [Psalms 20:1](/kjv/psalms/20/1) , the Defending Name; [Psalms 20:5](/kjv/psalms/20/5) , the Displayed Name; [Psalms 20:7](/kjv/psalms/20/7) , the Delivering Name. **God.** Hebrew. *Elohim.* App-4 . **God of Jacob** = Jacob's God: i.e. the God Who met Jacob when he had nothing and deserved nothing (but wrath), and gave him everything. The N.T. "God. of all grace", See note on [Genesis 32:28](/kjv/genesis/32/28) ; [Genesis 43:6](/kjv/genesis/43/6) ; [Genesis 45:26](/kjv/genesis/45/26) , [Genesis 45:28](/kjv/genesis/45/28) ; this Divine title occurs in [Psalms 46:7](/kjv/psalms/46/7) , [Psalms 46:11](/kjv/psalms/46/11) ; [Psalms 75:9](/kjv/psalms/75/9) ; [Psalms 76:6](/kjv/psalms/76/6) ; [Psalms 81:1](/kjv/psalms/81/1) , [Psalms 81:4](/kjv/psalms/81/4) ; [Psalms 84:8](/kjv/psalms/84/8) ; [Psalms 94:7](/kjv/psalms/94/7) ; [Psalms 114:7](/kjv/psalms/114/7) ; [Psalms 146:5](/kjv/psalms/146/5) . **defend** = shall defend.
