Psalms 37:27 - Clarke's commentary and critical notes on the Bible

Bible Comments

Depart from evil, and do good; and dwell for evermore. Depart from evil, and do good - Seeing the above is so, depart from all evil - avoid all sin; and let not this be sufficient, do good. The grace of God ever gives this two-fold power to all who receive it; strength to overcome evil, and strength to do that which is right.

Dwell for evermore - Be for ever an inhabitant of God's house. This may be also a promise of return to their own land, and of permanent residence there. See Psalms 37:9, Psalms 37:11, etc.
