"For thou hast been a shelter for me, and a strong tower from the enemy."
Commentary
Gill's Exposition
For thou hast been a shelter for me,.... Or "refuge" (y), from avenging justice; a hiding place and covert from the storms and tempests of divine wrath; a shadow and
a screen from the heat of Satan's fiery darts, and the blast of his terrible temptations, Isa 25:4 ; and a strong tower from the enemy: from Satan the devouring lion, from furious persecutors, and every other enemy; see Pro 18:10 ; and this experience the psalmist had of protection from the Rock in former times made him desirous of being led to it now. (y) "asylum", Tigurine version, Vatablus; "perfagium", Cocceius; "refugium", Michaelis.
