Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 22. - He draweth also the mighty with his power; i.e. he draws to his side, and makes his helpers, those who are mighty, attracting them or compelling them to join him by the power which he already has. He riseth up, and no man is sure of life. This is also the translation of the Revised Version. Some commentators, however, prefer to render, "He riseth up, when he has despaired of life; "i.e. the wicked man, when he has been brought into trouble, either sickness or danger of death at the hands of Justice, to men's surprise, "riseth up" - is delivered from the danger, and recovers his prosperity.

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(22) He draweth also the mighty.--He now appears to revert to his former line, and describes another case--that, namely, of a great tyrant who draws others by his influence and example to the same courses.He riseth up, and no man is sure of his life.--Being so completely under his sway.
