[Psalms 93](/study/psalms/93) [Psalms 95](/study/psalms/95) ## Commentary To verse 1 [Psalms 94:0](/kjv/psalms/94/0). *The prophet, calling for justice, complaineth of tyranny and impiety: he teacheth God's providence: he sheweth the blessedness of affliction. God is the defender of the afflicted.* THE later Greeks ascribe this psalm to David; and indeed it is an exact description of the courtiers of Saul; who abused their authority to all manner of oppression and violence, especially against David, without any fear of God, or thoughts that he would call them to any account; as he complains in several other psalms, particularly the 57th, 58th, and 59th. Dr. Delaney is of opinion, that this psalm was composed by David on account of the battle fought between the Israelites and the allied armies of the Ammonites and Syrians, [2 Samuel 10:1](/kjv/2-samuel/10/1); [1 Chronicles 19:0](/kjv/1-chronicles/19/0)[1 Chronicles 19:0](/kjv/1-chronicles/19/0); [1 Chronicles 19:0](/kjv/1-chronicles/19/0).; and he thinks that the 5th and 6th verses particularly refer to the outrages which they committed, in wasting his country, and murdering his subjects. Life of David, book 3: chap. 6.
