Psalms 105:15
“Do not touch My anointed ones! Do no harm to My prophets!”
BSB
ASV
Saying, Touch not mine anointed ones, And do my prophets no harm.
KJV
Saying, Touch not mine anointed, and do my prophets no harm.
Saying, Touch not mine anointed,.... Or, "mine anointed ones"; my Christs, as Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, were, who, though not anointed with material oil, yet were all that, that such were, who in later times were anointed with it.
Fourthly, Even those that touch the prophets, nay that kill the prophets (as many did), cannot do them any harm, any real harm. Lastly, God's anointed prophets are dearer to him than anointed kings themselves. Jeroboam's hand was withered when it was stretched out against a prophet.
The patriarch was the prophet, priest, and king of his family. my prophets--in a similar sense, compare Ge 20:7. The "anointed" are those vessels of God, consecrated to His service, "in whom (as Pharaoh said of Joseph, Ge 41:38) the Spirit of God is" [HENGSTENBERG].
Rare words are the text's own signal of a deliberate thread: the fewer the occurrences, the more the places it appears belong together.

But they will treat you like this because of My name, since they do not know the One who sent Me.
