Gill's Notes on the Bible
Yea, they opened their mouth wide against me,.... In laughter, scorn, and derision; see Psalms 22:7;
[and] said, Aha, aha: a word expressive of joy; and the doubling it shows the greatness of it;
our eye hath seen [it]; what their heart wished for; namely, the distress of him, whose enemies they were.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Yea, they opened their mouth wide against me - See the notes at Psalms 22:13.
And said, Aha, aha! - See Psalms 40:15; Psalms 70:3. The language is that which we use when we âdetectâ another in doing wrong - in doing what he meant to conceal.
Our eye hath seen it - We are not dependent on the reports of others. We have seen it with our own eyes. We have found you out. We cannot be mistaken in regard to it. The reference is to some supposed âdetectionâ of misconduct on the part of David, and the joy and triumph of such a supposed detection.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Psalms 35:21. They opened their mouth wide — Gaped upon me to express their contempt.
And said, Aha, aha, our eye hath seen it.] They said, ××× ××× heach, heach, the last syllable in each word being a protracted strongly guttural sound, marking insult and triumph at the same time. It is the word which we translate Ah, Psalms 35:25.
