Commentary on Psalms 18:47
God who 'avenges' David and 'subdues peoples' is exalted. The Hebrew 'nathan' (gives) vengeance indicates divine justice, not personal revenge. God subduing ('dabar'—bring down) peoples demonstrates His sovereignty over nations. This balances personal deliverance with cosmic authority. It anticipates God's ultimate judgment of all nations (Matthew 25:31-46) and Christ's reign where every enemy is subdued (1 Corinthians 15:24-25).
