Psalm 132
1. David in his prayer commends unto God the reverent care he had for the ark
8. His prayer at the removing of the ark
11. With a repetition of God's promises














He swore
The phrase "He swore" refers to a solemn promise or oath made by David. In the Hebrew context, the word used here is "נִשְׁבַּע" (nishba), which conveys a deep commitment and a binding agreement. Oaths in the biblical era were not taken lightly; they were sacred and often invoked the name of God as a witness. This highlights the seriousness and the spiritual weight of David's promise, reflecting his deep devotion and commitment to the Lord.

an oath to the LORD
The "oath to the LORD" signifies a vow made directly to Yahweh, the covenant God of Israel. This is significant because it underscores the personal relationship between David and God. In the ancient Near Eastern context, making an oath to a deity was a profound act of worship and dedication. It also reflects the covenantal nature of Israel's relationship with God, where oaths and promises were integral to maintaining faithfulness and obedience.

and vowed
The word "vowed" is closely related to "swore," but it emphasizes the voluntary nature of the commitment. The Hebrew word "נָדַר" (nadar) suggests a promise made out of devotion rather than obligation. This highlights David's willing heart and his desire to honor God through his actions. Vows in the biblical context were often accompanied by specific actions or sacrifices, indicating a tangible expression of faith.

to the Mighty One of Jacob
The title "the Mighty One of Jacob" is a powerful designation for God, emphasizing His strength and faithfulness. It connects the promise to the patriarch Jacob, reminding the reader of God's enduring covenant with the forefathers of Israel. This title evokes the history of God's dealings with His people, highlighting His power and reliability. It serves as a reminder of God's unchanging nature and His ability to fulfill His promises throughout generations.

(2) How he sware.--Literally, who sware. The expression "Mighty One of Jacob" is taken from the patriarch himself (Genesis 49:24; comp. Isaiah 1:24, &c).

Verse 2. - How he sware unto the Lord (see the comment on vers. 1-5). And vowed unto the mighty God of Jacob; rather, the Mighty One of Jacob (see Genesis 49:24; Isaiah 60:16).
