This Chapter Verse Commentaries:





He shall abide, or sit, to wit, in the throne, Jer_13:13.



Before God; living and ruling as in God’s presence, and serving God with his royal power, and worshipping him in his tabernacle.



Prepare, or order, or appoint, as this word signifies, Jon_1:17 4:6.



Mercy and truth; either,



1. The graces of mercy or compassion, and truth or faithfulness; which are the great supporters of thrones, Pro_20:28 29:14. Or rather,



2. Thy mercy and truth, i.e. the effects of them; thy truth in giving me those mercies which thou hast promised to me, and thy mercy in giving me such further blessings as I need and thou seest fit to give me.
