The Pulpit Commentary on Psalms 22:22

The Pulpit Commentary · Joseph S. Exell and contributors · Public domain

I will declare thy Name unto my brethren. The thought of the brethren is uppermost. As, when the body was removed, loving messages were at once sent to the disciples (; ), so, with the soul of the Redeemer in the intermediate state, the "brethren" are the first care.

God's Name, and all that he has done—the acceptance of the sacrifice, the effectuation of man's salvation—shall be made known to them (see ). In the midst of the congregation will I praise thee.

He will join with them in praising and adoring his Father, so soon as circumstances allow (compare the Eucharist at Emmaus, ).
