Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary

3:1-20 The prophet relates the more gloomy and discouraging part of his experience, and how he found support and relief. In the time of his trial the Lord had become terrible to him.

But the weakest believer is wrong, if he thinks that his strength and hope are perished from the Lord.

Psalm 88:6 You have put me in the lowest pit, In dark places, in the depths.
