Contextual Overview

2 [Then] he wyll iudge thy people accordyng vnto iustice: and thy afflicted accordyng to equitie. 3 The mountaynes also and hylles: shall bryng peace to the people by the meanes of ryghteousnesse. 4 He wyll iudge the afflicted amongst the people: he wyll saue the children of the poore, and subdue the oppressour. 5 They wyll feare thee as long as the sunne and moone shyneth: from one generation to another. 6 He wyll come downe lyke the rayne into a fleece of wooll: euen as the droppes that water the earth. 7 In his dayes the ryghteous wyll florishe: and there shalbe aboundaunce of peace so long as the moone endureth. 8 His dominion also shalbe from the one sea to the other: and from the fludde vnto the ende of the earth. 9 They that dwell in the wildernesse shal kneele before him: his enemies shal licke the dust. 10 The kyng of Tharsis and of the Iles shall offer presentes: the kynges of Sheba & Seba shall bring giftes. 11 All kynges wyll worshyp hym: all nations wyll do hym seruice.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

He shall judge the poor of the people,.... Of the people of God, whether among Jews or Gentiles; :-;

he shall save the children of the needy; whose parents being needy, they are so too, in a spiritual sense, and in distressed circumstances. Such Christ saves from their sins; from the curses and condemnation of the law: from, wrath to come, and out of the hands of all their enemies;

and shall break in pieces the oppressor; the tyrant Satan, the god of this world; that has usurped a power over it; who works in the children of disobedience, and leads captive the people of God in their unregenerate state: the "calumniator", as some render the word; the accuser of the brethren: "the defrauder" q, as others: who beguiled our first parents, and deceives mankind. Now it was foretold of Christ that he should break his head; and he was manifested in the flesh to destroy his works; and him himself; and he has broke him and all his schemes in pieces, and spoiled all his principalities and powers: The Syriac Version reads, "tyrants" or "oppressors", in the plural number; and it may include the Jews, who were the persecutors and oppressors of the first Christians; and Rome, Pagan and Papal; antichrist, and all the antichristian states, which have been, or will be, broken to pieces by Christ; who will rule them with a rod of iron, and break them in pieces as a potter's vessel, Revelation 2:27.

q עושק "calumniatorem", Pagninus, Tigurine version, Vatablus, Musculus; "fraudatorem", Muis, Cocceius.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

He shall judge the poor of the people - The afflicted; the down-trodden; the needy. He would vindicate their cause against their oppressors; his reign would be one of impartial justice, under which the rights of the poor as well as of the rich would be respected. See the notes at Isaiah 11:4.

He shall save the children of the needy - Those in humble life; those most likely to be oppressed by others; those who have no natural protectors.

And shall break in pieces the oppressor - Shall subdue, or destroy, those who live to oppress others. See the notes at Psalms 12:5.
