Psalms 119:26,27 - Joseph Benson’s Commentary on the Old and New Testaments

Bible Comments

I have declared my ways My manner of life, my sins, my temptations, my sorrows, my wants, dangers, fears, cares, and concerns; my designs, undertakings, and pursuits: I have spread them all before thee, by way of sincere confession, humble supplication, or solemn appeal. And thou heardest me Heardest patiently all I had to say, tookest cognizance of my case, and didst grant my petitions and accept my praises. Make me to understand, &c. Namely, more thoroughly and practically, the meaning of thy precepts Which are exceeding broad; and how I may walk according to them. Or, how I may demean myself in all the varieties of my condition, and in all my affairs and actions, so as is most agreeable to thy precepts. So shall I talk of thy wondrous works Of the wonders of thy law, mentioned Psalms 119:18.
