Catholic 1849 · Haydock’s Catholic Bible Commentary, Psalms 61:4

George Leo Haydock, on Ps 61:4

George Leo Haydock · 1774–1849
Ps 61:4 · Douay-Rheims
“How long do you rush in upon a man? you all kill, as if you were thrusting down a leaning wall, and a tottering fence.”
On this verse:
“Fence. This may refer to the persecutors, who resembled a leaning wall. (Berthier) (Isaias xxx. 13.) (Calmet) — Protestants, “ye shall be slain all of you, as a bowing wall shall ye be, ” &c. He threatens them with speedy destruction, (Haydock) or represents to them the baseness of attacking a man ready to fall. (Calmet) — He informs them, that their attempts will be in vain, though they be very numerous, and he himself apparently so weak. (Worthington)”
