Psalms 119:33-35 - Joseph Benson’s Commentary on the Old and New Testaments

Bible Comments

HE.

Psalms 119:33. Teach me, &c., and I will keep it Or, that I may keep it; that I may persevere; for apostacy proceeds from the want of wisdom and understanding; unto the end Hebrew, עקב, to the heel, that is, quite through, from head to foot. Make me to go, &c., in thy commandments By directing my mind into the right way, by inclining my will, and strengthening my resolution. For therein do I delight Forsake not him who delighteth in thee, and in thy service; and as thou hast wrought in me to will, do thou also work in me to do.

Psalms 119:33-35

33 HE. Teach me, O LORD, the way of thy statutes; and I shall keep it unto the end.

34 Give me understanding, and I shall keep thy law; yea, I shall observe it with my whole heart.

35 Make me to go in the path of thy commandments; for therein do I delight.
