You have put away my acquaintance far from me; you have made me an abomination unto them: I am shut up, and I cannot come forth.
All Commentaries on Psalms 88:8 Go To Psalms 88
George Leo Haydock
AD 1849
Delivered up, to prison. (Berthier)
The disciples abandoned our Saviour; St. Peter, with a curse, denied that he ever knew him, (Mark xiv. 71.; Haydock) and Judas betrayed him. It is not so easy to explain this of the captives in general, though it might refer to the psalmist. (Calmet)
At Babylon, the Israelites were not imprisoned, but left to multiply, Jeremias xxix. 5. (Berthier)
