Bible Comments

But the meek shall inherit the earth; and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace.

Ver. 11. But the meek shall inherit the earth] Our Saviour (and probably from hence) saith the same, Matthew 5:5. See Trapp on " Mat 5:5 " See Trapp on " Psa 37:9 "

And shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace] Because cured of the fret, and well content with their present condition; hence that ευθυμια, rectitude of mind, the mother of all true mirth; when the wicked are in a perpetual disquietude, στασιαζει γαρ αυτων η φυχη, they are never at rest.
