King James Translators' Notes

passed...: Heb. turned away

as a...: or, as a meditation

Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Bible Commentary

9. are passed-literally, "turn," as to depart (Jer 6:4).

spend-literally, "consume."

as a tale-literally, "a thought," or, "a sigh" (Eze 2:10).

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary

90:7-11 The afflictions of the saints often come from God's love; but the rebukes of sinners, and of believers for their sins, must be seen coming from the displeasure of God. Secret sins are known to God, and shall be reckoned for. See the folly of those who go about to cover their sins, for they cannot do so. Our years, when gone, can no more be recalled than the words that we have spoken. Our whole life is toilsome and troublesome; and perhaps, in the midst of the years we count upon, it is cut off. We are taught by all this to stand in awe. The angels that sinned know the power of God's anger; sinners in hell know it; but which of us can fully describe it? Few seriously consider it as they ought. Those who make a mock at sin, and make light of Christ, surely do not know the power of God's anger. Who among us can dwell with that devouring fire?

for Ps 78:33

passed. Heb. turned.
we spend. Our years pass away like those of the spider. Our plans and operations are like the spider's web. Life is as frail, and the thread of it as brittle, as one of those which constitute the well-wrought and curious, but fragile habitation of that insect. All the Versions have the word spider, but it is not found in any Hebrew MSS, or edition yet collated. The Hebrew might be rendered, We consume our lives with a groan.
