a
The RV has not adhered to the preterite rendering of the aorist, though there seems no reason why they might not have said, "Thou didst love righteousness and hate iniquity (or lawlessness).
b
It is too strong to say that the Greek will not bear "God, (even) thy God." The fact is, that either construction is allowable grammatically: the question is really one of the sense best suiting the context, "God, thy God," or, "O God." {vi 14676}{/vi} proves the analogy to the KJV, and the context (to my mind) is consistent with this alone. It is as man, not as God, that the Lord could be said with any propriety to be anointed.
c
In the aspect of divine glory we should not hear of "Thy fellows."
