You shall not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flies by day;
All Commentaries on Psalms 91:5 Go To Psalms 91
George Leo Haydock
AD 1849
Shield. God's fidelity, or word, affords the best protection, Proverbs xxx. 5. (Calmet)
Having the spirit of faith, a man is secure. But he whose heart is hardened, (Berthier) is covered with the buckler of God's affliction, (Lamentations iii. 64.; Haydock) abuses every thing, and seems bewitched with self-love, Galatians i. (Berthier)
Night. Devils, spectres, (Canticle of Canticles iii. 7.; Calmet) and treacherous insinuations, that people are not bound to confess the truth, in time of danger. (Worthington)
