Excerpt from The 68th Psalm: Comprising Introduction, Revised, Translation, and Critical Notes
Hupfeld-nowack' think the Psalm had relation to some event in the battles in Palestine between the Ptolemies and the Seleucids. The wars between Ptolemy and Seleucus and their descendants lasted more than 100 years 320 The particular event which was calculated to call forth such an outburst of religious joy is not identified by them.
Reuss's chooses the same period, finding the Psalm pervaded by a deep feeling of sorrow and depression caused by the plunder and ill-treatment of the people of Palestine by the contending kings and their mercenary auxiliaries.
