Commentary on Psalms 94:5
The psalmist describes the wicked 'breaking in pieces' (daka—crush, oppress) God's people and afflicting His heritage (nachalah—possession, inheritance). The dual description 'thy people' and 'thine heritage' emphasizes that attacking God's people is attacking God's own possession. This verse establishes that persecution of believers is not merely horizontal conflict but vertical offense against God. The LORD takes personally the suffering inflicted on His people, a principle Jesus affirms in Matthew 25:40, 45.
