Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Psalms 41:9

_ _ mine ... friend — literally, “the man of my peace.”

_ _ eat ... bread — who depended on me or was well treated by me.

_ _ hath lifted up heel — in scornful violence. As David and his fortunes typified Christ and His (compare Introduction), so these words expressed the treatment he received, and also that of his Son and Lord; hence, though not distinctly prophetical, our Savior (John 13:18) applies them to Judas, “that the Scripture may be fulfilled.” This last phrase has a wide use in the New Testament, and is not restricted to denote special prophecies.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Psalms 41:5-13.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Psalms 41:9

Yea — These words were literally fulfilled in David, and yet the Holy Ghost looked farther in them, even to Christ and Judas, in whom they received a fuller accomplishment. Lift up — A phrase implying injury, joined with insolency and contempt; taken from an unruly horse, which kicks at him that owns and feeds him.

Geneva Bible Translation Notes

Psalms 41:9

Yea, mine own familiar friend, in whom I trusted, which did eat of my bread, (g) hath lifted up [his] heel against me.

(g) As David felt this falsehood, and as it was chiefly accomplished in Christ, (John 13:18) so shall his members continually prove the same.
