“Save me from the lion's mouth: for thou hast heard me from the horns of the unicorns.”
Psalms 22:21 (KJV)
Commentary on Psalms 22:21
The plea to be saved 'from the lion's mouth' and 'from the horns of the unicorns' (wild oxen) depicts surrounded danger. The phrase 'thou hast heard me' marks a turning point—from lament to confidence, from petition to assurance. Reformed theology sees this as the moment of answered prayer, prophetically fulfilled in Christ's resurrection. God heard Christ's cry and raised Him from death, vindicating His trust and securing salvation for all who believe.
