“For thou wilt save the afflicted people; but wilt bring down high looks.”
Psalms 18:27 (KJV)
Commentary on Psalms 18:27
God saves the humble ('anav'—afflicted/humble) but brings down the haughty eyes. The Hebrew 'gabhah ayin' (lofty eyes) symbolizes pride. This anticipates Jesus' teaching that the humble will be exalted and proud humbled (Luke 14:11, 18:14). Reformed theology sees pride as the root sin and humility as essential for receiving grace (James 4:6, 1 Peter 5:5).
