On this verse

Draft selections — awaiting the founder’s edit.

That was a type of Christ, and it is to him that we must lift up our eyes and hands, for through him all good comes from God to us. It was also a figure of heaven ( Heb. ix. 24 ); and from God as our Father in heaven we are taught to expect an answer to our prayers.

Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710puritan

Hear the voice of my prayers when I cry to thee. This repetition is a sign of a heart in anguish. David's ardor and vehemence in prayer are also intimated by the noun signifying voice, and the verb signifying to cry.

John Calvin· Commentaries, 1554reformed
