Pulpit Commentary
Pulpit CommentaryVerse 21. - Blessed be the Lord: for he hath showed me his marvellous kindness in a strong city. The "strong city" has been explained as Ziklag (Delitzsch), or Maha-naim (2 Samuel 17:24), but is probably as much a figure of speech as the "pavilion" of ver. 20. God has showed David his marvellous loving-kindness by giving him an assurance of absolute security.
Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(21) Shewed me his marvellous kindness . . .--Better, made his kindness distinguished or manifest, referring to Psalm 31:19.In a strong city.--Some see a reference to David's adventures at Ziklag or Keilah; others to Jeremiah's in Jerusalem (Jeremiah 38). It is, however, better to regard it merely as a general image of the Divine protection.
