Psalms 17:4-6 - Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary

Bible Comments

This is blessed, as it concerns our glorious Surety; for God engaged to carry him through his whole work; see Psalms 89:21-24. And it is blessed also, as it concerns his redeemed in him. The Redeemer committed them to the Father in the moment of his departure. And God our Father hath engaged to keep them also for Jesus's sake: see John 17:11; 1 Peter 1:5.

Psalms 17:4-6

4 Concerning the works of men, by the word of thy lips I have kept me from the paths of the destroyer.

5 Hold up my goings in thy paths, that my footsteps slipb not.

6 I have called upon thee, for thou wilt hear me, O God: incline thine ear unto me, and hear my speech.
