Clarke's 1-chronicles 16:35 Bible Commentary
Save us, O God of our salvation - As he is the saving God, so we may pray to him to save us. To pray to God under the attribute the influence of which we need, serves to inspire much confidence. I am weak; Almighty God, help me! I am ignorant; O thou Father of lights, teach me! I am lost; O merciful God, save me; etc. See the notes on Psalm 96:1-13 (note) and Psalm 105 (note).
Wesley's 1-chronicles 16:35 Bible Commentary
16:35 From the Heathen - This psalm or prayer was made by David for the use of the church, not only in that present time, but in future ages,in which David foresaw by the spirit of prophecy, the Israeliteswould forsake God, and for their apostacy be dispersed among the Heathens.In the midst of our praises, we must not forget to pray for those servantsof God that are in distress. When we are rejoicing in God's favours, weshould remember our afflicted brethren, and pray for their deliverance asour own. We are members one of another.
