Psalms 22:20 (KJV)
Commentary on Psalms 22:20
The prayer for deliverance from 'the sword' and 'the dog' uses metaphors for violent death and contemptuous enemies. 'My darling' (Hebrew: yachid, 'my only one') likely refers to the psalmist's own life or soul—his singular, precious existence. For Christ, this may refer to His unique, divine-human person. Reformed theology emphasizes that God answered this prayer through resurrection, delivering Christ's soul from death and granting Him eternal life to share with His people.
