I laid me down and slept; I awaked; for the LORD sustained me.
All Commentaries on Psalms 3:5 Go To Psalms 3
George Leo Haydock
AD 1849
Rest, in sin; (St. Athanasius) or, I have not lost my confidence in God, though dangers threaten on every side. (Calmet)
Jesus remained undaunted, when his enemies surrounded him; he continued (Theodoret) free among the dead, and rose again by his own power. (Haydock)
If he prayed that the chalice might be removed, it was to teach us how to behave. (Calmet)
He was buried, and rose again, and his disciples believed the Scriptures (John ii. 22.) recorded here, and in other places. (Worthington)
The same word refers to past and future things. (St. Gregory, Mor. xx. 1.) (Worthington)
