Pulpit Commentary
Pulpit CommentaryVerse 11. - And they say, How doth God know? Their wickedness breeds scepticism in them. They wish God not to know, and therefore begin to question whether he does or can know (comp. Psalm 10:4, 11, 13). And is there knowledge in the Most High? Does God concern himself at all with the things that take place on earth (comp. Psalm 94:7)? IS not man too weak and contemptible to attract his attention?
Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(11-14) The mutual relation of these verses has been the subject of many conflicting opinions. The following is the arrangement that seems preferable--"And people say, How shall God know?And does the Most High take notice of it?Lo! there are wicked men, And yet, always at ease, they amass riches.It is in vain then that I have kept my heart pure.And washed my hands in innocence;For I have been plagued every day,And my punishments (come) every morning."--this reflection being put into the mouth of the public who are onlookers at the career of these timeservers. But the poet immediately goes on to disclaim it for himself.
