This Chapter Verse Commentaries:





The peace and tranquillity of the church, and the propagation of the kingdom of Christ, is always the cause of a heart-rejoicing to such as fear God, Psa_105:3; the reason is, because it is the greatest object of their desires, which are then satisfied, and their thoughts are then at rest; and besides they are members of the same body, so as their own bones, which before are dry and withered, Eze_37:1,2, and the sinews, and the flesh, come again upon them, and the skin covers them above, so as they



flourish like an herb in the spring, all whose verdure and beauty in the winter was concealed in the root hid in the earth.



And the hand of the Lord shall be known toward his servants; and in this the power, protection, and influence of God for, of, and upon such as truly serve and obey him shall be made manifest and known.



And his indignation toward his enemies; but the wicked shall be under a quite contrary dispensation, Psa_1:4. As they have had a day which hath been to you the power of darkness, so you shall have a day which shall be to them the power of darkness; as God’s hand shall be upon and towards such as fear me, to cover, and bless, and influence them, so his indignation shall in that day be showed towards those of your nation who have declared themselves the enemies of the Lord.
