David
Psalm 34:22WEB·superscription

Yahweh redeems the soul of his servants. None of those who take refuge in him shall be condemned.

C.H. Spurgeon Reformed Baptist

The Lord redeemeth the soul of his servants —with price and with power, with blood and with water. All providential helps are a part of the redemption by power, hence the Lord is said still to redeem. All thus ransomed belong to him who bought them—this is the law of justice and the verdict of gratitude.

Matthew Henry Presbyterian

A king and warrior, with his head full of cares and hands full of business, did not think it beneath him to gather the children and teach them the fear of the Lord from his own hard experience. The tender branches are more easily bent than the stubborn trees; children will be tractable when their elders refuse instruction.
