John Calvin Reformed @genevareformer

David has endured terrible torment and danger, but God preserved him when all hope would have failed. His deliverance makes God's power so conspicuous that gratitude is the only response he can offer for such innumerable benefits.

C.H. Spurgeon Reformed Baptist @princeofpreachers

I will pay my vows unto the Lord now in the presence of all his people. He repeats the declaration. A good thing is worth saying twice. He thus stirs himself up to greater heartiness, earnestness, and diligence in keeping his vow, —really paying it at the very moment that he is declaring his resolution to do so.

Matthew Henry Presbyterian @wholebiblehenry

I believed, therefore I spoke, even though it cost me affliction and brought Saul's rage upon me. Those who believe in God must confess with their mouths, for His glory, for the courage of others, and to prove their own sincerity. Shame and fear have no place in one who owns his obligation to the Purchaser of his eternal hope.
