Salmos 3:1-2
He who offers no grounds for hate and enmity may have enemies for no reason. Such are all who endure persecution because they live righteously for Jesus Christ. To these the Savior says, "Blessed are you when people revile you and when liars speak evil against you on account of me." This is what happened when David had many enemies for no reason such as Saul and Absalom and those who accompanied them. For they attacked without cause him who was a righteous man and had often shown them much goodness and gentleness. — FRAGMENTS ON THE PSALMS 3:8
Salmos 3:3
Since the psalm is spoken from the person of the Lord, it must be said that even the head of him who is lifted up is of God, since really his deity is made manifest to the faithful through external demonstration. The word head in this place indicates "chief." Christ, therefore, the chief of holy people, deservedly is their king, and it is his head that is lifted up. — FRAGMENTS ON THE PSALMS 3:4
