Psalms 112:8 - Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible

Bible Comments

His heart is established, he shall not be afraid, until he see his desire upon his enemies.

His heart is established - literally, 'surely-supported:' the same Hebrew (samuk) as is applied to 'all God's commandments,' Psalms 111:7. The firmness of God's commandments, with their appended promises, gives firmness to the believer's heart.

He shall not be afraid, until he see (his desire) upon his enemies - (Psalms 54:7.) Faith (which is the negative of fear) continues until sight comes, and hope gives place to the desire accomplished.
