The cry to God to deliver

Psalm 54 is the cry to God to deliver according to the value of His name, the subject' of trust. The double character of the enemies is spoken of strangers, enemies from without; and oppressors, the proud within, who hunt for the life of the poor. When deliverance comes, then the name of Jehovah is introduced (v. 6, 7). The name of God is the revelation of what He is. This is what is trusted. Jehovah's name, that of their covenant God, will be praised when they get back into the place of association with Him.
