Psalms 130:6 - Coke's Commentary on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

My soul waiteth, &c.— Or, My soul hasteth to the Lord, from the guards in the morning, the guards in the morning. Mr. Green renders it, My soul waiteth for the Lord more ardently than those who watch for the appearance of the morning. The Psalmist seems to mean the priests, or some officers of theirs, who were peculiarly appointed from a tower to expect the first appearance of the break of day, when the morning oblation was to be offered. The Psalmist here intimates, that they were not earlier than he in his daily address to God.

Psalms 130:6

6 My soul waiteth for the Lord more than they that watch for the morning: I say, more than they that watcha for the morning.
