Psalms 137:5,6 - Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary

Bible Comments

I hope the Lord's Israel at all times feels somewhat of this same spirit. It is blessed to feel the love of Jesus in seasons when Jesus is opposed, and to have this testimony in the worst of times. Peter, though he had been led captive by Satan for the moment, could, and did appeal to Jesus, who knew his heart, that he still did love him, John 21:17. Reader! what saith your heart to this question, Is Jesus precious? To them who believe he is so, 1 Peter 2:7.

Psalms 137:5-6

5 If I forget thee, O Jerusalem, let my right hand forget her cunning.

6 If I do not remember thee, let my tongue cleave to the roof of my mouth; if I prefer not Jerusalem above my chiefc joy.
