This Chapter Verse Commentaries:





Thy servant; I thy servant, though a king and a prophet, and of some repute for wisdom and knowledge, yet I am daily taught by them.



Warned, or, enlightened, as Dan_12:3; or clearly admonished, as this word signifies, Exo_18:20 2Ki_6:10 Ecc_4:13 Eze_3:17, &c.; Eze_33:3,9. It is a faithful and excellent monitor to show me my duty in all conditions and to preserve me from falling into sin, and danger, and mischief.



In keeping of them; to those that make it their great design and care to conform their whole lives to them. For he speaks not of a legal and perfect keeping of them, which no man attaineth to in this life, Ecc_7:20 Gal_3:10-12 1Jo_1:8; but of doing it in an evangelical sense, with the allowances which God through Christ makes for human infirmities. There is great reward in this life, and especially in the next.
