‏ Psalms 78:56-61

56-57. a deceitful bow--which turns back, and so fails to project the arrow (2Sa 1:22; Ho 7:16). They relapsed.

58. Idolatry resulted from sparing the heathen (compare Psa 78:9-11).

59-60. heard--perceived (Ge 11:7).

abhorred--but not utterly.

61. his strength--the ark, as symbolical of it (Psa 96:6).
