Contextual Overview

8 He hath ben mindfull alwayes of his couenaunt (for he promised a worde to a thousande generations:) 9 euen of his couenaunt that he made with Abraham, and of his othe vnto Isaac. 10 And he appointed the same vnto Iacob for a law: and to Israel for an euerlasting couenaunt. 11 Saying, vnto thee I wyll geue the lande of Chanaan: the lot of your inheritaunce. 12 When they were a fewe men in number, and had ben straungers but a litle whyle in it: 13 and when they went from one nation to another, from one kingdome to another people. 14 He suffred no man to do them wrong: yea he reproued euen kynges for their sakes. 15 Touche not mine annoynted: and triumph not ouer my prophetes. 16 Moreouer he called for a famine vpon the lande: and he made all maner of foode to fayle. 17 But he had sent a man before them: euen Ioseph, who was solde to be a bonde seruaunt.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Moreover, he called for a famine upon the land,.... On the land of Egypt; or rather on the land of Canaan, where Jacob and his sons sojourned; and which reached to all lands, Genesis 41:56 and calling for it, it came, being a servant at the command of the Lord; see 2 Kings 8:1.

He brake the whole staff of bread; so called, because it is the support of man's life, the principal of his sustenance: as a staff is a support to a feeble person, and which, when broke, ceases to be so. The staff of bread is broken, when either the virtue and efficacy of it for nourishment is taken away or denied; or when there is a scarcity of bread corn; which latter seems to be intended here; see Isaiah 3:1.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Moreover, he called for a famine upon the land - It was not by chance; not by the mere operation of physical laws, but it was because God “ordered” it. The famine here referred to, as the connection shows, was that which occurred in the time of Jacob, and which was the occasion of the migration into Egypt. There was also a famine in the time of Abraham Genesis 12:10; but the design of the psalmist here is to refer to that period of the Jewish history which pertained to their residence in Egypt, and to the dealings of God with the nation when there, as furnishing an occasion for gratitude. Genesis 41:0; Genesis 42:0.

He brake the whole staff of bread - That which supports life, as a staff does a feeble man. See the notes at Isaiah 3:1.
