Psalms 119:106-108
_ _ Such was the national covenant at Sinai and in the fields of Moab. |
Psalms 119:106
_ _ Here is, 1. The notion David had of religion; it is keeping God's righteous judgments. God's commands are his judgments, the dictates of infinite wisdom. They are righteous judgments, consonant to the eternal rules of equity, and it is our duty to keep them carefully. 2. The obligation he here laid upon himself to be religious, binding himself, by his own promise, to that which he was already bound to by the divine precept, and all little enough. “I have sworn (I have lifted up my head to the Lord, and I cannot go back) and therefore must go forward: I will perform it.” Note, (1.) It is good for us to bind ourselves with a solemn oath to be religious. We must swear to the Lord as subjects swear allegiance to their sovereign, promising fealty, appealing to God concerning our sincerity in this promise, and owning ourselves liable to the curse of we do not perform it. (2.) We must often call to mind the vows of God that are upon us, and remember that we have sworn. (3.) We must make conscience of performing unto the Lord our oaths (an honest man will be as good as his word); nor have we sworn to our own hurt, but it will be unspeakably to our hurt if we do not perform. |
Psalms 119:106
I have (b) sworn, and I will perform [it], that I will keep thy righteous judgments.
(b) So all the faithful ought to bind themselves to God by a solemn oath and promises to stir up their zeal to embrace God's word. |
