Matthew Poole and continuators on Psalms 2:3

3. Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us .

(i. e.) The lords and his anointeds.

Which they design to put upon our necks that they may bring us into subjection. They mean the laws of God, which the King would oblige them to observe, which though easy and pleasant in themselves and to good men, Mat. 11. 29, 30. 1. Iohn 5. 3. yet are very grievous and burthensom to corrupt nature, and to men of wicked lives.

The same thing expressed with a little more emphasis. Let us not only break off their yoke and the cor[illegible: 1+ letters]s by which it is fastened upon us, but let us cast them far away, that they may never be recovered, and we may never be brought into bondage again.
