Description
Who was Cush?
Cush, a Benjamite, is mentioned in the title of Psalm 7, which provides the context for David's composition of this psalm. The title states that David sang this song to the Lord concerning the words of Cush, a Benjamite. This suggests that Cush had spoken against David in some manner, possibly through slander, false accusations, or threats.
The content of Psalm 7 reveals that David faced persecution and opposition, and he sought God's protection and justice against those who attacked him without cause. David affirms his innocence and trusts in God to judge righteously, knowing that God is a righteous judge who feels indignation every day.
Although no further details are provided about Cush or his specific words against David, the psalm's title and content indicate that Cush's actions prompted David to seek refuge and vindication from the Lord. This incident demonstrates David's reliance on God in the face of adversity and his confidence in God's justice.
Relations
Direct connections
The kinship import reads the registry's own columns — parent, child, sibling, spouse — for every entity in it, and records none here. An extracted relation would be listed beside them, and none names this person either.
Not stated
No family is recorded for this person.
Places
Where this happens
A person is placed by the events they take part in, and an event has to clear three things to place them: it must say where it happened, that place must be one the gazetteer can put a coordinate on, and the verse must report it rather than foretell, command or ask it. Nothing anchored here clears all three. Where the text names a setting no gazetteer surveys — a vineyard, a palace, a plot of ground — it is left off rather than guessed at; where a place is named only in a prophecy, the map does not draw what was said to be coming as though it had happened; and a place reached only through a relation is not inherited, because standing beside somebody is not being somewhere.
No verse Atlas has read as a report puts this person anywhere.
