A Coordinated Attack
Commentators explain that the attack on the righteous is not random but a coordinated effort. The Hebrew for 'gather together' suggests a mob, a troop, or a formal assembly. Scholars like Charles Spurgeon note that the wicked, who may disagree on everything else, unite in their opposition to God's people, conspiring 'against the soul of the righteous.'
