Psalms 34:11-14 - Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary

Bible Comments

How exceedingly to be desired is it, that those who set up for instructors of children would adopt David's plan, and instead of useless sciences, falsely so called, teach that happy science, the only one truly to be esteemed, so to know and to fear the Lord. These are all charming precepts, and when souls are brought under divine teachings, and feel the divine influence, it is blessed to have so learned Christ as to put off the old man which is corrupt, and to put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness. Ephesians 4:20-24.

Psalms 34:11-14

11 Come, ye children, hearken unto me: I will teach you the fear of the LORD.

12 What man is he that desireth life, and loveth many days, that he may see good?

13 Keep thy tongue from evil, and thy lips from speaking guile.

14 Depart from evil, and do good; seek peace, and pursue it.
