Psalms 50:8 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

I do not charge thee, or at least this is not the principal matter of my charge, that thou hast neglected sacrifices which thou shouldst have offered; for although thou hast many times omitted thy duty in that kind, yet I have greater things than these to charge thee with. To have been; or, they have been. I confess thou hast been frequent in that work, and hast laid too great a stress upon it, and satisfied thy conscience with it, as if thereby thou hadst made me amends for the errors of thy life.

Psalms 50:8

8 I will not reprove thee for thy sacrifices or thy burnt offerings, to have been continually before me.
