Psalms 41:9

“Yea, mine own familiar friend, etc.] Or, “the man of my peace” f578; who did live peaceably with him, and ought always to have done so; whom he treated as his friend, as the rest of the apostles; calling him to that high office, and ordaining him to it, and qualifying him for it; and whom he called by the name of friend, when he came to betray him; Judas is meant; in whom I trusted; with the bag and the money in it, both for the sustenance of his own family, the apostles, and for the relief of the poor, (<431206>John 12:6 13:29); which did eat of my bread; of his bread in common with the rest of the apostles; and who was eating with him when he gave the sign who should betray him; and who…”

“mine . . . friend--literally, "the man of my peace." eat . . . bread--who depended on me or was well treated by me. hath lifted up heel--in scornful violence.

This last phrase has a wide use in the New Testament, and is not restricted to denote special prophecies.”

“Yea, mine own familiar friend - Margin, as in Hebrew: “the man of my peace.” The man with whom I was at peace; who had no cause of alienation from me; with whom I was associated in the most peaceful and friendly relations. In whom I trusted - He whom I made my confidential friend, and on whom I supposed I could rely in the time of trouble. Which did eat of my bread - This may either denote one who was supported by him as one of his family, or else one who partook of his hospitality. In the former case, if that is the meaning, he bad a right to expect that, as a matter of gratitude, such an one would stand by him, and not be found among his enemies. In the latter case, if that is the meaning,…”

“Yea - These words were literally fulfilled in David, and yet the Holy Ghost looked farther in them, even to Christ and Judas, in whom they received a fuller accomplishment.

“41:9 the one who shared my food: Eating together was a sign of unity (Acts 2:42). Refusing to eat with someone indicated hostility (1 Cor 5:11). Jesus experienced the same kind of betrayal (John 13:1, 18).”

“Yea: Psa 55:12-14, Psa 55:20-22; Sa2 15:12; Job 19:19; Jer 20:10 mine own familiar friend: Heb. the man of my peace which: Deu 32:15; Oba 1:7; Joh 13:18, Joh 13:26, Joh 13:27 lifted up: Heb. magnified Psalms 41:10”
