Commentary on Psalms 3:2
David voices the painful taunts of his enemies who mock his faith in God's deliverance. The Hebrew 'yeshuah' (help/salvation) comes from the same root as 'Yeshua' (Jesus), pointing forward to the ultimate Savior. 'Selah' appears here, likely a musical pause for meditation on this devastating accusation. Yet even in quoting his enemies' lies, David's faith shines through - he still addresses God directly. This psalm, written during Absalom's rebellion, foreshadows Christ's suffering when enemies mocked His trust in the Father (Matthew 27:43).
