Context Summary

Psalm 35:18-28 - An Appeal To The Righteous Judge
Psalms 35:20 : "The Quiet in the Land" was the title adopted by holy men and women in Germany, during long dark days when religion was under an eclipse. It is beautifully appropriate to those whose life is "hid with Christ in God." "We are in Him that is true," Colossians 3:1-4; 1 John 5:20.
Psalms 35:24 : Judge me, O Lord! What a comfort it is to appeal from the judgments of men to the bar of God! We know that the soul's Advocate there will plead its cause with the eloquence of love. His interposition and vindication will clear us. God has seen! God will not keep silence! He is not far away!
Psalms 35:27-28 : We desire that others should join us in praise. "One seraph cried to another" in Isaiah's vision. There should be a holy emulation in thanksgiving. Oh, that the resolution of the psalmist might characterize us all; and that all our days might be full of praise, instead of the constant murmuring and complaining which are so rife even among God's children!
