OT events seemingly alluded to in this psalm. 55:9 seems to allude to the tower of Babel in Genesis 11:1-9. 55:9-11 The picture of the wickedness of the city is quite a contrast with Psalms. 46 and 48. 55:15 "Let them go down alive into Sheol" Numbers 16:30-33 NT and Psalm 55 55:22 Casting our care upon God is encouraged in I Peter 5:7. 55:23 God hurling the wicked to destruction is in Revelation 19:20-21 among other places.
