“He delivered me from my strong enemy, and from them which hated me: for they were too strong for me.”
Psalms 18:17 (KJV)
Commentary on Psalms 18:17
God delivered David from his 'strong enemy' and those who hated him, for they were 'too mighty' for him. The Hebrew 'chalats' (deliver) means to rescue or snatch away. Acknowledging enemies were 'too mighty' admits human inability, requiring divine intervention. This anticipates believers' confession that apart from Christ we can do nothing (John 15:5). Reformed theology's sola gratia affirms that God alone saves.
