Commentary on Psalms 71:12
The urgent prayer 'O God, be not far from me' seeks divine presence and intervention. 'Make haste for my help' combines distance imagery (be near) with speed imagery (hurry). The repetition emphasizes desperation—not casual request but urgent plea. God's nearness and swift action are essential for deliverance. This models persistent, bold prayer that doesn't give up despite circumstances. Jesus taught similar persistence in the parable of the importunate widow (Luke 18:1-8).
