Psalm 102:6 (a) This is a type of CHRIST in His loneliness. He was a stranger in a strange land, and among enemies. The pelican obtained its food from the sea, not in the wilderness. In the wilderness it could find no food and no companionship. It was away from its customary haunts. So CHRIST was away from Heaven, His element, and was among strangers where there was nothing upon which His soul could feed.
