Psalms 112:9 - John Trapp Complete Commentary

Bible Comments

He hath dispersed, he hath given to the poor; his righteousness endureth for ever; his horn shall be exalted with honour.

Ver. 9. He hath dispersed] Or, made a scatter, yet with discretion, giving liberally, but most of all where is most need, and with a specialty of respect to the family of faith, Galatians 6:16

His righteousness endureth for ever] The reward of his charity is lasting, or his charity is never at an end, Sic vocat eleemosynas (Aben Ezra); he giveth after that he hath given, as a spring runneth after it hath run, as the sun shineth after it hath shone. See 2 Corinthians 8:4,5

His horn shall be exalted] i.e. His head, as 1 Samuel 2:1; 1 Samuel 2:10 .
