Excerpt from Daily Scripture Readings by the Late Thomas Chalmers, D.D., LL. D, Vol. 3 of 3

Psalm III. - This psalm is thought to have been com posed by David on his flight from Absalom. It applies well to his situation at that time. He retains, in the midst of his disasters, unbroken confidence in God - he sustains himself on the Rock of Ages. This and other psalms seem as if composed piecemeal, and at intervals between one part and another; for with the prayer for victory going before, there is afterwards the victory itself recorded, though verse 7 may refer to his past experience. The word Selah, which occurs so often in the Psalms, is regarded by many as a mark somehow related to the music; and certainly it occurs nowhere else in Scripture. By others it is looked upon as indicative of a pause for the purpose of giving greater solemnity and emphasis to the utterance which had gone before - Let my refuge, like that of the Psalmist, ever be in God, nor let the most adverse and menacing events ever dispossess me of my confidence Though the reference to our Saviour is not here so obvious as in the last psalm, yet, without overstraining, may it well be applied to Him when in the Garden of Gethsemane.

Excerpt from Daily Scripture Readings by the Late Thomas Chalmers, D.D., LL. D , Vol. 3 of 3

Before entering on this rich and precious department of Scripture, let me lift up a solemn prayer to God, that He would enable me to gather from it those fruits unto holiness, the end of which is life everlasting; and that the same Spirit which animated the Psalmist would enlighten and impress me with all the fervour and devotedness which burn and breathe throughout these sacred compositions - a treasure and blessing to the Church in all ages.

Psalm I. - Dr. Good, in his Historical Outline of the Psalms, states that this was written by David previous to his entry on public life. I am not sure that I will frequently advert to the occasions of the different Psalms. But let me, O God, drink in the spirit and sentiment of these blessed effusions... The scorner is the infidel of these times, who poured mockery on the ways of God and on His people; and the Psalmist, disowning such, pronounces on the better part of him whose delight and meditation are the law of God.
