INTRODUCTION TO Psalms 22 To the chief Musician upon Aijeleth Shahar, a Psalm of David. The only thing observable in the title of this psalm is the sense of the words "Aijeleth Shahar", left untranslated; which, according to some of the Jewish (g) interpreters, is the name of a musical instrument; to which our version inclines; and a learned Jew (h) says, it is the instrument which the mourning...

They shall come,.... One generation after another; there shall always be a succession of regenerate persons, who shall come to Christ, and to his churches; and a succession of Gospel ministers among them, who shall come forth, being sent and qualified by Christ; and shall declare his righteousness, either the faithfulness of God, in fulfilling his promises; especially those which respect the...
Matthew Henry
The Spirit of Christ, which was in the prophets, testifies in this psalm, as clearly and fully as any where in all the Old Testament, "the sufferings of Christ and the glory that should follow" (1 Pet. i. 11); of him, no doubt, David here speaks, and not of himself, or any other man. Much of it is expressly applied to Christ in the New Testament, all of it may be applied to him, and some of it...
Charles H. Spurgeon
It shall be accounted to the Lord for a generation. They shall come, How he rolls it like a sweet morsel under his tongue! “They shall come.” Those great sinners, those far-off ones, “they shall come,”-

And shall declare his righteousness unto a people that shall be born, that he hath done this. Or, “It is finished.” There the Psalm endeth, and that was the Master’s dying cry.

They shall come, — The passion of Christ shall work for a certain deliverance for his people; what he has purchased, he shall surely have: “They shall come,” — Psa_22:31. And shall declare his righteousness unto a people that shall be born, that he hath done this. Or, “it is finished.” When our Lord had uttered these words, “he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost.”
Charles H. Spurgeon
For the kingdom is the Lord’s: and he is the governor among the nations. All they that be fat upon earth shall eat and worship: all they that go down to the dust shall bow before him: and none can keep alive his own soul. A seed shall serve him; it shall be accounted to the Lord for a generation. They shall come, and shall declare his righteousness unto a people that shall be born, that he hath...
Charles H. Spurgeon
All they that be fat upon earth shall eat and worship: all they that go down to the dust shall bow before him: and none can keep alive his own soul. A seed shall serve him; it shall be accounted to the Lord for a generation. They shall come,- I should have liked to hear those syllables fall from those dear lips of his. “They shall come,” he says to himself; “They shall come,” —
Charles H. Spurgeon
And shall declare his righteousness unto a people that shall be born, He sees the great host of the regenerate, the twice-born, who shall be saved through his death. Psa_22:31. That he hath done this. It would be a very literal translation if I read these last words thus “It is finished.” Thus the Psalm ends, and so ended the great sacrifice of Christ upon the cross: “It is finished.” “’It is...
