Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 6. - Thou makest us a strife unto our neighbours. A great invasion, Assyrian or Babylonian, was always a signal to the near neighbours of Israel - Syria, Moab, Ammon, Edom - to indulge in hostilities (see 2 Kings 24:2). And our enemies laugh among themselves (comp. Psalm 44:13; Psalm 79:4).

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(6) A strife--i.e., an object of contention. In no other sense could Israel be a strife to neighbouring nations. For the bearing of this on the date of the psalm see its Introduction.Laugh among themselves.--Literally, for themselves. But LXX. and Vulg. read, "at us."
