Psalms 101:1

Verse 1. Poor. Hebrew “afflicted.” This may refer to some of the captives, who were returning, (verse 14. Calmet.) or to Jesus Christ, (Saint Augustine) to whom Saint Paul applies verse 26. 28 and whose redemption was prefigured by the former event. Calmet.—David might have both in view. Bible.—Yet most believe that the psalm was written by Daniel, or Jeremias, and so forth Calmet.—It may have two literal senses, like many others. Bert.
