Psalms 119:120 - Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible

Bible Comments

My flesh trembleth for fear of thee; and I am afraid of thy judgments.

My flesh trembleth for fear of thee - (1 Chronicles 13:12; Ezekiel 27:35: especially Habakkuk 3:2; Habakkuk 3:16). 'Joyful hope goes hand in hand with fear' (Hengstenberg). If God's past judgments cause trembling even to the godly, who shall be untouched by any such judgments, how much more ought they to strike terror into the guilty?
