“He asked life of thee, and thou gavest it him, even length of days for ever and ever.”
Psalms 21:4 (KJV)
Commentary on Psalms 21:4
The request for 'life' receives an answer of eternal life—'length of days for ever and ever.' While the earthly king sought temporal life, God's answer transcends time. This Messianic overtone points to Christ, who asked for life (Heb. 5:7) and received resurrection and eternal dominion. The Reformed understanding sees God's answers exceeding our petitions according to His sovereign purposes—we ask temporally, God answers eternally.
