Commentary on Psalms 35:17
The cry 'how long' echoes throughout Psalms, expressing the tension between faith and felt abandonment. 'My darling' (Hebrew 'yachid,' only one, unique) likely refers to his life or soul, something precious and singular. Protection from 'lions' metaphorically represents powerful, violent enemies. This petition acknowledges God's sovereignty over timing while urgently requesting relief, modeling prayer that's both submissive and honest.
