Bible Comments

Psalms 119:133

I. This verse recognises and accepts the obligation of moral order: "Order my steps."

II. It fixes the legitimate source and centre of that order: "In Thy word." The Bible centres, regulates, restrains, and establishes a man.

III. It deprecates the consequences of moral lawlessness, the dominion of iniquity.
