Psalms 140:13 - Ellicott's Commentary On The Whole Bible

Bible Comments

Surely. — Or, perhaps here, only, the primary meaning of the particle.

Dwell. — For the thought comp. Psalms 11:7; Psalms 16:11. After the peril and seeming abandonment God again proves the covenant promise true, and those whom the heathen would have chased from the land find in it a sure dwelling-place in the light of the presence and favour of Jehovah.

Psalms 140:13
