Psalms 145:8 - Clarke's commentary and critical notes on the Bible

Bible Comments

The LORD is gracious, and full of compassion; slow to anger, and of great mercy. The Lord is gracious - His holy nature is ever disposed to show favor.

Full of compassion - Wherever he sees misery, his eye affects his heart.

Slow to anger - When there is even the greatest provocation.

Of great mercy - Great in his abundant mercy. These four things give us a wonderful display of the goodness of the Divine nature.
