_ _ multitude — literally, “beast,” their flock or company of men (Psalms 68:10).

_ _ turtledove — that is, the meek and lonely Church.

_ _ congregation — literally, “the company,” as above — thus the Church is represented as the spoiled and defeated remnant of an army, exposed to violence.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Psalms 74:18-23.

Psalms 74:19

Soul — The life. Turtle — dove — Of thy church, which is fitly compared to a turtle — dove, because simple and harmless, and meek, and faithful.
