RRB notes on Psalm 64

Psalms 64 KJV

To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.

1. Hear my voice, O God, in my prayer: preserve my life from fear of the enemy.

2. Hide me from the secret counsel of the wicked; [a] from the insurrection of the workers of iniquity:

[a] The “ten kings” under the Antichrist (Dan. 2:41-43; Rev. 17:12).

3. Who whet their tongue like a sword, and bend their bows to shoot their arrows, even bitter words:

4. That they may shoot in secret at the perfect: suddenly do they shoot at him, and fear not.

5. They encourage themselves in an evil matter: they commune of laying snares privily; they say, Who shall see them? [b]

[b] Psa. 10:11-13.

6. They search out iniquities; they accomplish a diligent search: both the inward thought of every one of them, and the heart, is deep.

7. But God shall shoot at them with an arrow; suddenly shall they be wounded.

8. So they shall make their own tongue to fall upon themselves: all that see them shall flee away.

9. And all men shall fear, and shall declare the work of God; for they shall wisely consider of his doing.

10. The righteous shall be glad in the LORD, and shall trust in him; and all the upright in heart shall glory.

 RRB notes on Psalm 63

Psalms 63 KJV

A Psalm of David, when he was in the wilderness of Judah.

1. O God, thou art my God; early will I seek thee: [a] my soul thirsteth for thee, my flesh longeth for thee in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is;

[a] Prov. 8:17.

2. To see thy power and thy glory, so as I have seen thee in the sanctuary. [b]

[b] 2 Sam. 7:18; 2 Kings 19:14.

3. Because thy lovingkindness is better than life, my lips shall praise thee.

4. Thus will I bless thee while I live: I will lift up my hands in thy name.

5. My soul shall be satisfied as with marrow and fatness; and my mouth shall praise thee with joyful lips:

6. When I remember thee upon my bed, and meditate on thee in the night watches.

7. Because thou hast been my help, therefore in the shadow of thy wings will I rejoice.

8. My soul followeth hard after thee: thy right hand upholdeth me.

9. But those that seek my soul, to destroy it, shall go into the lower parts of the earth. [c]

[c] The reference is Messianic as well as Davidic (1 Pet. 3:18-20; Eph. 4:8-9).

10. They shall fall by the sword: they shall be a portion for foxes.

11. But the king shall rejoice in God; [d] every one that sweareth by him shall glory: but the mouth of them that speak lies shall be stopped.

[d] Double application (Psa. 2:6, 5:2, 10:16, 20:9, 21:7, 45:1).

 RRB notes on Psalm 62

Psalms 62 KJV

To the chief Musician, to Jeduthun, A Psalm of David.

1. Truly my soul waiteth upon God: from him cometh my salvation.

2. He only is my rock and my salvation; he is my defence; I shall not be greatly moved.

3. How long will ye imagine mischief against a man? ye shall be slain all of you: as a bowing wall shall ye be, and as a tottering fence.

4. They only consult to cast him down from his excellency: they delight in lies: they bless with their mouth, but they curse inwardly. Selah.

5. My soul, wait thou only upon God; for my expectation is from him.

6. He only is my rock [1] and my salvation: he is my defence; I shall not be moved.

[1] The “rock” is not Simon Peter in either Testament. The “rock” is only “Simon Peter” in one great worldwide, dictatorial, imperialistic, pagan religion. The “rock,” here, is the “Rock” of Deuteronomy 32:31. In the New Testament, the “Rock” is identified as Jesus Christ Himself (1 Pet. 2:6-8; 1 Cor. 10:4).

7. In God is my salvation and my glory: the rock of my strength, and my refuge, is in God.

8. Trust in him at all times; ye people, pour out your heart before him: God is a refuge for us. Selah.

9. Surely men of low degree are vanity, and men of high degree are a lie: [2] to be laid in the balance, they are altogether lighter than vanity. [a] 

[2] The verse is a slap in the face of every highly educated scholar, College graduate, and “doctor” from the major Christian Colleges, Universities, and Seminaries. Although the verse was only aimed at a person’s station in life, the “advanced revelation” of the KJV is so obvious and pointed that every new “Bible” on the market (and several of the major commentators) change the verse to get rid of the application to every destructive critic with a B.A., B.S., M.A., D.D., Ph.D., Th.D., etc., after his name.

[a] Cf. Psa. 39:5.

10. Trust not in oppression, and become not vain in robbery: if riches increase, set not your heart upon them.

11. God hath spoken once; twice have I heard this; that power belongeth unto God.

12. Also unto thee, O Lord, belongeth mercy: for thou renderest to every man according to his work.

 RRB notes on Psalm 61

Psalms 61 KJV

To the chief Musician upon Neginah, A Psalm of David.

1. Hear my cry, O God; attend unto my prayer.

2. From the end of the earth will I cry unto thee, when my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to the rock that is higher than I.

3. For thou hast been a shelter for me, and a strong tower from the enemy.

4. I will abide in thy tabernacle for ever: I will trust in the covert of thy wings. Selah.

5. For thou, O God, hast heard my vows: thou hast given me the heritage of those that fear thy name.

6. Thou wilt prolong the king’s life: and his years as many generations.

7. He shall abide before God for ever: O prepare mercy and truth, which may preserve him.

8. So will I sing praise unto thy name for ever, that I may daily perform my vows.

 RRB notes on Psalm 60

Psalms 60 KJV

To the chief Musician upon Shushan-eduth, Michtam of David, to teach; when he strove with Aram-naharaim and with Aram-zobah, when Joab returned, and smote of Edom in the valley of salt twelve thousand.

1. O God, thou hast cast us off, thou hast scattered us, thou hast been displeased; O turn thyself to us again. [1]

[1] The entire psalm is the Second Advent. Verse 1 is the end of the Church Age. Nothing in the passage has devotional or spiritual application to any Christian who ever lived.

2. Thou hast made the earth to tremble; thou hast broken it: heal the breaches thereof; for it shaketh. [a]

[a] Isa. 2:19-21, 13:13, 14:16, 24:18-19; Joel 3:16; Hag. 2:6-7, 21; Heb. 12:26.

3. Thou hast shewed thy people hard things: thou hast made us to drink the wine of astonishment.

4. Thou hast given a banner [b] to them that fear thee, that it may be displayed because of the truth. Selah.

[b] Song of Sol. 6:4; Psa. 20:5; Isa. 13:2.

5. That thy beloved may be delivered; save with thy right hand, and hear me.

6. God hath spoken in his holiness; I will rejoice, I will divide Shechem, and mete out the valley of Succoth.

7. Gilead is mine, and Manasseh is mine; Ephraim also is the strength of mine head; Judah is my lawgiver;

8. Moab is my washpot; over Edom will I cast out my shoe: [c] Philistia, triumph thou because of me.

[c] Ruth 4:7.

9. Who will bring me into the strong city? [d] who will lead me into Edom?

[d] “Selah” – where Israel flees in the Tribulation (see note on 2 Kings 14:7) and is fed (Rev. 12:6, 14; Psa. 74:14, 78:15, 107:4, 40; Hos. 2:14; Job 30:3; Matt. 15:33; Mark 8:4; Eccl. 10:15).

10. Wilt not thou, O God, which hadst cast us off? and thou, O God, which didst not go out with our armies?

11. Give us help from trouble: for vain is the help of man.

12. Through God we shall do valiantly: [e] for he it is that shall tread down our enemies. [f]

[e] Num. 24:18.

[f] Isa. 63:1-3; Rev. 14:20, 19:11-15.

Note on 2 Kings 14:7 KJV

He slew of Edom in the valley of salt ten thousand, and took Selah [1] by war, and called the name of it Joktheel unto this day.

[1] Here the word “Selah” is [chet-samekh-lamed-ayin]. See Psalm 3:4, 4:2, 4, 21:2, 39:5, etc., for the word “Selah” there [samekh-lamed-ayin]. On a map, it is called Selah-Petra, the “rock city.” There will be a reference to the Second Coming of Christ within two or three verses of the word every time it shows up. It is only recognized by scholars as a pause or musical note. The word means “rock” – the “rock of separations” (1 Sam. 23:28). Otherwise, it is the “Rock” mentioned over and over again in the Song of Moses (Deut. 32), with the entire song dealing with the Second Advent (cf. Psa. 107:4, 7, 36, 108:10, 31:21; Eccl. 10:15). The Jewish remnant will be going south of the Dead Sea into the “rock city” to hide in the last few hours before the Lord returns and saves them “in the nick of time” on a white horse (see App. 99).

 RRB notes on Psalm 59

Psalms 59 KJV

To the chief Musician, Al-taschith, Michtam of David, when Saul sent, and they watched the house to kill him.

1. Deliver me from mine enemies, O my God: defend me from them that rise up against me. [1]

[1] Notice, again, the double application as we have seen in previous psalms. Verse 1-4 are a reference to David fleeing from Saul in 1 Samuel 19:11-17, but verses 5-13 have nothing to do with that in intent, wording, or application. Those last verses are Second Advent from start to finish (Isa. 51:9; Dan. 11:26-27, 30-32; Psa. 2:4-6; Dan. 2:44; 2 Thess. 2:8; Zech. 14:9-21; Isa. 2:2-3).

2. Deliver me from the workers of iniquity, and save me from bloody men.

3. For, lo, they lie in wait for my soul: the mighty are gathered against me; not for my transgression, nor for my sin, O LORD.

4. They run and prepare themselves without my fault: awake to help me, and behold.

5. Thou therefore, O LORD God of hosts, the God of Israel, awake to visit all the heathen: [a] be not merciful to any wicked transgressors. Selah.

[a] This “visitation” is Christ coming to kill two million UN troops (Jer. 50:27, 51:18; Hos. 9:7; Isa. 23:17, 26:14, 29:3-8).

6. They return at evening: they make a noise like a dog, and go round about the city.

7. Behold, they belch out with their mouth: swords are in their lips: for who, say they, doth hear?

8. But thou, O LORD, shalt laugh at them; thou shalt have all the heathen in derision.

9. Because of his strength will I wait upon thee: for God is my defence.

10. The God of my mercy shall prevent me: God shall let me see my desire upon mine enemies.

11. Slay them not, lest my people forget: [b] scatter them by thy power; and bring them down, O Lord our shield.

[b] Judg. 2:21-23, 3:1-4.

12. For the sin of their mouth and the words of their lips let them even be taken in their pride: and for cursing and lying which they speak.

13. Consume them in wrath, consume them, that they may not be: and let them know that God ruleth in Jacob unto the ends of the earth. [c] Selah.

[c] Psa. 110:1-2; Zech. 14:9; Jer. 23:5.

14. And at evening let them return; and let them make a noise like a dog, and go round about the city.

15. Let them wander up and down for meat, and grudge if they be not satisfied.

16. But I will sing of thy power; yea, I will sing aloud of thy mercy in the morning: for thou hast been my defence and refuge in the day of my trouble.

17. Unto thee, O my strength, will I sing: for God is my defence, and the God of my mercy.

 RRB notes on Psalm 58

Psalms 58 KJV

To the chief Musician, Al-taschith, Michtam of David.

1. Do ye indeed speak righteousness, O congregation? do ye judge uprightly, O ye sons of men?

2. Yea, in heart ye work wickedness; ye weigh the violence of your hands in the earth.

3. The wicked are estranged from the womb: they go astray as soon as they be born, speaking lies.

4. Their poison is like the poison of a serpent: they are like the deaf adder that stoppeth her ear;

5. Which will not hearken to the voice of charmers, charming never so wisely.

6. Break their teeth, O God, in their mouth: break out the great teeth of the young lions, O LORD.

7. Let them melt away as waters which run continually: when he bendeth his bow to shoot his arrows, let them be as cut in pieces. [a]

[a] Either the Antichrist’s arrows broken (Rev. 6:2) or God’s arrows cutting the Antichrist to pieces (2 Sam. 22:15; Hab. 3:11).

8. As a snail which melteth, let every one of them pass away: like the untimely birth of a woman, that they may not see the sun.

9. Before your pots can feel the thorns, he shall take them away as with a whirlwind, both living, and in his wrath.

10. The righteous shall rejoice when he seeth the vengeance: he shall wash his feet in the blood of the wicked.

11. So that a man shall say, Verily there is a reward for the righteous: verily he is a God that judgeth in the earth.

 RRB notes on Psalm 57

Psalms 57 KJV

To the chief Musician, Al-taschith, Michtam of David, when he fled from Saul in the cave.

1. Be merciful unto me, O God, be merciful unto me: for my soul trusteth in thee: yea, in the shadow of thy wings will I make my refuge, until these calamities be overpast.

2. I will cry unto God most high; unto God that performeth all things for me.

3. He shall send from heaven, and save me [a] from the reproach of him that would swallow me up. Selah. God shall send forth his mercy and his truth.

[a] Post-Tribulation rapture (Psa. 50:4-6).

4. My soul is among lions: and I lie even among them that are set on fire, even the sons of men, whose teeth are spears and arrows, and their tongue a sharp sword. [b]

[b] Figurative description of the Jew in the Tribulation (Psa. 10:9, 17:12; Prov. 28:15).

5. Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens; let thy glory be above all the earth.

6. They have prepared a net for my steps; my soul is bowed down: they have digged a pit before me, into the midst whereof they are fallen themselves. [c] Selah.

[c] Psa. 5:10, 9:15.

7. My heart is fixed, O God, my heart is fixed: I will sing and give praise.

8. Awake up, my glory; awake, psaltery and harp: I myself will awake early.

9. I will praise thee, O Lord, among the people: I will sing unto thee among the nations. [d]

[d] Millennium (Psa. 67:2, 108:3; Isa. 61:11; Jer. 31:7).

10. For thy mercy is great unto the heavens, and thy truth unto the clouds. [e]

 RRB notes on Psalm 26

Psalms 26 KJV

A Psalm of David.

1. Judge me, O LORD; [1] [a] for I have walked in mine integrity: I have trusted also in the LORD; therefore I shall not slide.

[1] If you apply the prayer doctrinally to Jesus Christ, you can get by, but every request in it is based on the works of the speaker (vss. 3-6). That is not a Chrisitan praying in the New Testament at all. If you apply it to an individual Israelite, he’s absolutely counting on his works to save him, for he lists eight works and doesn’t mention “grace” one time.

[a] Psa. 35:24.

2. Examine me, O LORD, and prove me; try my reins and my heart.

3. For thy lovingkindness is before mine eyes: and I have walked in thy truth.

4. I have not sat with vain persons, neither will I go in with dissemblers.

5. I have hated the congregation of evil doers; and will not sit with the wicked.

6. I will wash mine hands in innocency: so will I compass thine altar, O LORD:

7. That I may publish with the voice of thanksgiving, and tell of all thy wondrous works.

8. LORD, I have loved the habitation of thy house, and the place where thine honour dwelleth.

9. Gather not my soul with sinners, nor my life with bloody men:

10. In whose hands is mischief, and their right hand is full of bribes.

11. But as for me, I will walk in mine integrity: redeem me, and be merciful unto me.

12. My foot standeth in an even place: in the congregations will I bless the LORD.

 RRB Notes on Psalm 24

Psalms 24 KJV

A Psalm of David.

1. The earth is the LORD’s, and the fulness thereof; [a] the world, and they that dwell therein.

[a] 1 Cor. 10:26

2. For he hath founded it upon the seas, and established it upon the floods.

3. Who shall ascend into the hill of the LORD? or who shall stand in his holy place?

4. He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart; who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully.

5. He shall receive the blessing from the LORD, and righteousness from the God of his salvation. [b]

[b] Vss. 3-5 is a faith-and-works salvation.

6. This is the generation of them that seek him, [1] that seek thy face, O Jacob. [2] Selah.

[1] Not a reference to any generation of Jews between A.D. 33 and the present day. Notice the “Selah” at the end of the verse; it is a reference to the Jews in the Tribulation looking for Christ at the Second Advent (see note on 2 Kings 14:7).*

[2] Notice the peculiar substitution of “Jacob” for God (see note on 1 Sam. 20:12).** You will find a similar thing in Psalm 48:12-14, where “the towers” and “bulwarks” are “God”; see especially Romans 9:17 and Galatians 3:8, where Paul used the word “scripture” instead of God.

7. Lift up your heads, O ye gates; and be ye lift up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in.

8. Who is this King of glory? The LORD strong and mighty, the LORD mighty in battle. [c]

[c] Vss. 7-8 cf. Zech. 9:8-10, 14:1-11.

9. Lift up your heads, O ye gates; even lift them up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in.

10. Who is this King of glory? The LORD of hosts, he is the King of glory. [3] Selah.

[3] The “King of glory” is not Allah (“the god”). The “King of glory” and “God of gods” (Deut. 10:17) is Jehovah – “the LORD,” the tetragrammaton (יהוה – see App. 1).

*Note on 2 Kings 14:7

He slew of Edom in the valley of salt ten thousand, and took Selah [1] by war, and called the name of it Joktheel unto this day.

[1] Here the word “Selah” is [chet-samekh-lamed-ayin]. See Psalm 3:4, 4:2, 4, 21:2, 39:5, etc., for the word “Selah” there [samekh-lamed-ayin]. On a map, it is called Selah-Petra, the “rock city.” There will be a reference to the Second Coming of Christ within two or three verses of the word every time it shows up. It is only recognized by scholars as a pause or musical note. The word means “rock” – the “rock of separations” (1 Sam. 23:28).

And Jonathan said unto David, O LORD God of Israel, [2] when I have sounded my father about to morrow any time, or the third day, and, behold, if there be good toward David, and I then send not unto thee, and shew it thee;

[2] The wording is remarkable. Jonathan addresses David as “O LORD God of Israel.” How is that for a “type”? Look at the same thing in Deuteronomy

 29:6, where the “I am” is coming out of the mouth of Moses (Deut. 29:2). What is going on here is that while a man is talking to somebody, he is talking to God at the same time.

Psalms 22 KJV

To the chief Musician upon Aijeleth Shahar, A Psalm of David

1. My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? why art thou so far from helping me, and from the words of my roaring?

2. O my God, I cry in the daytime, but thou hearest not; and in the night season, and am not silent.

3. But thou art holy, O thou that inhabitest the praises of Israel.

4. Our fathers trusted in thee: they trusted, and thou didst deliver them.

5. They cried unto thee, and were delivered: they trusted in thee, and were not confounded.

6. But I am a worm, [a] and no man; a reproach of men, and despised of the people.

[a] See note on Job 17:14 and comments on John 3:14, Mark 9:44, 46.

7. All they that see me laugh me to scorn: they shoot out the lip, they shake the head, saying,

8. He trusted on the LORD that he would deliver him: let him deliver him, seeing he delighted in him. [b]

[b] Vss. 7-8 cf. Mark 15:29-31.

9. But thou art he that took me out of the womb: [c] thou didst make me hope when I was upon my mother’s breasts.

[c] Isa. 44:1-2; 49:5.

10. I was cast upon thee from the womb: thou art my God from my mother’s belly.

11. Be not far from me; for trouble is near; for there is none to help.

12. Many bulls have compassed me: strong bulls of Bashan have beset me round. [d]

[d] Obviously figurative (Psa. 68:30; see note on Job 12:7).

13. They gaped upon me with their mouths, as a ravening and a roaring lion.

14. I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint: my heart is like wax; it is melted in the midst of my bowels.

15. My strength is dried up like a potsherd; and my tongue cleaveth to my jaws; [e] and thou hast brought me into the dust of death.

[e] John 19:28-30.

16. For dogs have compassed me: the assembly of the wicked have inclosed me: they pierced my hands and my feet. [f]

[f] Zech. 12:10.

17. I may tell all my bones: they look and stare upon me. [g]

[g] Matt. 27:36.

18. They part my garments among them, and cast lots upon my vesture. [1][h]

[1] (22:18) The chapter is a detailed, prophetic account of the crucifixion of Jesus Christ, given over 1,000 years before the event took place (see vss. 1, 7, 8, 16, 17, and here). There are 48 such historical prophecies about the First Advent, and not one of them was recorded any later than 400 years before He was born. This is scientific, mathematical proof, according to the laws of statistical probability, that no man could have written The Holy Bible (see Peter Stoner’s book Science Speaks, referred to in the “Introduction to the New Testament” of this work). In comparison, the Koran is a joke. In 114 Suras, Mohammed was not able to give three historical prophecies. (See Appendix 77).

[h] John 19:23-24.

19. But be not thou far from me, O LORD: O my strength, haste thee to help me.

20. Deliver my soul from the sword; my darling [i] from the power of the dog.

[i] “Darling,” popular expression meaning literally “only,” “lonely,” or “singly.”

21. Save me from the lion’s mouth: for thou hast heard me from the horns of the unicorns. [j]

[j] Psa. 92:10; App. 55.

22. I will declare thy name unto my brethren: in the midst of the congregation will I praise thee. [k]

[k] Heb. 2:10-12.

23. Ye that fear the LORD, praise him; all ye the seed of Jacob, glorify him; and fear him, all ye the seed of Israel.

24. For he hath not despised nor abhorred the affliction of the afflicted; neither hath he hid his face from him; but when he cried unto him, he heard.

25. My praise shall be of thee in the great congregation: I will pay my vows before them that fear him.

26. The meek shall eat and be satisfied: they shall praise the LORD that seek him: your heart shall live for ever.

27. All the ends of the world shall remember and turn unto the LORD: and all the kindreds of the nations shall worship before thee. [l]

[l] Second Advent (Psa. 2:10-12; Isa. 2:2-4; Mal. 1:11; Zech. 14:16-19).

28. For the kingdom is the LORD’s: and he is the governor among the nations.

29. All they that be fat upon earth shall eat and worship: all they that go down to the dust shall bow before him: and none can keep alive his own soul.

30. A seed [m] shall serve him; it shall be accounted to the Lord for a generation.

[m] The corrupt modern versions get rid of the word :seed: so you won’t make the cross-reference to Isa. 53:10.

31. They shall come, and shall declare his righteousness unto a people that shall be born, [n] that he hath done this.

[n] The New Birth (John 1:13, 3:5).

Note on Job 17:14 KJV

I have said to corruption, Thou art my father: to the worm, [2] Thou art my mother, and my sister.

[2] The verse is more than a dramatic, figurative statement, as the BIble-correcting scholars and teachers pretend. They forgot that Jesus Christ called Himself the same thing in Psalm 22:6 and warned about being the condition of a man in Hell (Mark 9:44, 46, 48). Jesus extended the classification to a “serpent” in John 3:14. Jesus Christ warned that a man had better not lose his soul (Mark 8:36). When God made Christ to become sin (2 Cor. 5:21), He “lost” His soul (Isa. 53:10); it was made “an offering for sin” (John 18:11; Heb. 5:7).

[6] If you join this verse with Galatians 3:13 and 2 Corinthians 5:21, you will see that Jesus Christ not only bore your sins and took away your sins, He was actually turned into sin itself (singular as well as plural) to take your punishment for sin Himself. In view of 1 Thessalonians 5:23 and Isaiah 53:10, this means that Christ lost His bodily shape by becoming sin when He took the place of a lost sinner in Hell (Psa. 22:6; Mark 9:44, 46, 48; see note on Matt. 26:38). This is what Jesus was praying about in the Garden of Gethsemane (John 18:11), not just death on the cross.

Comments on Mark 9:44 KJV

Where their worm [j] dieth not, and the fire is not quenched. [3]

[j] See App. 92.

[3] Verses 43-48 deal with “hell”; naturally they will be changed in all the corrupt new “Bibles.” To “lessen the blow” for all their thin-skinned, easily offended readers, they’ve gotten rid of the “worms” from verses 44, 46, 48. The NIV simply removes all three of those verses, while the RSV only knocks out verse 44. The silly thing about the matter is that they still retain the KJV verse numbers, even though there are no verses 44, 46, and 48. “Hell” is mentioned fifteen times in the four Gospels (Matt. 5:22, 29-30, 10:28, 11:23, 16:18, 18:9, 23:15, 33; Mark 9:43, 45, 47; Luke 10:15, 12:5, 16:23). The new versions left the word untranslated in Matthew 11, 16, and Luke 10, 16; as well as Acts 2:27, 31 and Revelation 1:18, 6:8, 20:13-14. The Bible revisers try to draw a distinction between Hell (hades) and the Lake of Fire (gehenna) that is meaningless (see Rev. 20:14).
