My enemies speak evil of me, When shall he die, and his name perish?
All Commentaries on Psalms 41:5 Go To Psalms 41
George Leo Haydock
AD 1849
Perish? When shall we have a change, and see Absalom on the throne? When shall we get rid of this man, who reproves our conduct? So were the Jews animated to destroy Christ. (Theodoret)
The rest of the psalm more visibly relates to him. (Calmet)
His enemies were greatly disappointed. (Haydock)
For after they had put him to death, he rose again, and his name and kingdom became more glorious. (Worthington)
