Contextual Overview

1 The Lord is a God who punishes. God, show your greatness and punish! 2 Rise up, Judge of the earth, and give the proud what they deserve. 3 How long will the wicked be happy? How long, Lord ? 4 They are full of proud words; those who do evil brag about what they have done. 5 Lord , they crush your people and make your children suffer. 6 They kill widows and foreigners and murder orphans. 7 They say, "The Lord doesn't see; the God of Jacob doesn't notice." 8 You stupid ones among the people, pay attention. You fools, when will you understand? 9 Can't the creator of ears hear? Can't the maker of eyes see? 10 Won't the one who corrects nations punish you? Doesn't the teacher of people know everything?

Gill's Notes on the Bible

They slay the widow and the stranger,.... Who are so both in a literal and figurative sense, such who are weak and feeble, helpless and friendless; or who are deprived of their faithful pastors, who were as husbands and fathers to them, and who profess themselves pilgrims and strangers here; these the followers of the man of sin have inhumanly put to death, supposing they did God good service:

and murder the fatherless; having slain the parents in a cruel and barbarous manner, murder their infants; or figuratively such who are as orphans, destitute of their spiritual fathers, who were the instruments of begetting them in Christ, and of nourishing them with the words of faith and good doctrine; with the blood of these the whore of Rome has often made herself drunk, and therefore blood shall be given her to drink, Revelation 17:5.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

They slay the widow and the stranger, and murder the fatherless - To do this is everywhere represented as a special crime, and as especially offensive to God from the fact that these classes are naturally feeble and unprotected. See the notes at Isaiah 1:17; Psalms 68:5; Psalms 82:3.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Psalms 94:6. They slay the widow — Nebuchadnezzar carried on his wars with great cruelty. He carried fire and sword every where; spared neither age, sex, nor condition. The widow, the orphan, and the stranger, persons in the most desolate condition of life, were not distinguished from others by his ruthless sword.
