📚 Historical Context

This psalm is attributed to David and includes a note that it was written when he pretended to be insane before Abimelech (likely referring to Achish, king of Gath) and was driven away. David wrote this after experiencing God's deliverance from a dangerous situation where he had to feign madness to escape enemy territory.
