Romans 11:9

_ _ And David saith — (Psalms 69:23), which in such a Messianic psalm must be meant of the rejecters of Christ.

_ _ Let their table, etc. — that is, Let their very blessings prove a curse to them, and their enjoyments only sting and take vengeance on them.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Romans 11:9

And David saith — In that prophetic imprecation, which is applicable to them, as well as to Judas. A recompence — Of their preceding wickedness. So sin is punished by sin; and thus the gospel, which should have fed and strengthened their souls, is become a means of destroying them. Psalms 69:22-23

Geneva Bible Translation Notes

Romans 11:9

And David saith, (i) Let their table be made a snare, and a trap, and a stumblingblock, and a recompence unto them:

(i) As unhappy birds are enticed by that which is their sustenance, and then killed, and so did that thing turn to the Jew's destruction, out of which they sought life, that is, the law of God, for the preposterous zeal of which they refused the Gospel.
