Church Fathers on Psalms 16:10

The inscription of the title, of David himself. 1. Our King in this Psalm speaks in the character of the human nature He assumed, of whom the royal title at the time of His passion was eminently set forth. 2. Now He says as follows; “Preserve me, O Lord, for in You have I hoped” Psalm 15:1: “I have said to the Lord, You are my God, for You require not my goods” Psalm 15:2: for with my goods Thou dost not look to be made blessed. 3. “To the saints who are on His earth”…
