This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
The way of the Lord; either,
1. The way or course of God’s providence in the government of the world. Or rather,
2. The way of God’s precepts, as God’s way or ways are most commonly understood in Scripture, or walking in God’s ways; for this is opposed to working iniquity in the next clause.
Is strength; gives strength, i.e. either courage and confidence, or support and protection from that destruction here following.
Destruction, or terror, or
consternation, as the word properly signifies, and many render it. The design of this verse is to show that piety is the only true policy.
