Alexander MacLaren's Expositions of Holy Scripture - Psalms 25:8-9

Psalms GUIDANCE IN JUDGMENT Psa_25:8 - Psa_25:9 . The Psalmist prays in this psalm for three things: deliverance, guidance, and forgiveness. Of these three petitions the central one is that for guidance. ‘Show me Thy ways, O Lord,’ he asks in a previous verse; where he means by ‘Thy ways,’ not God’s dealings with men, but men’s conduct as prescribed by God. In my text he exchanges petition for contemplation; and gazes on the character of God, in order thereby to be helped to confidence in... read more

Alexander MacLaren's Expositions of Holy Scripture - Psalms 25:11

Psalms A PRAYER FOR PARDON AND ITS PLEA Psa_25:11 . The context shows us that this is the prayer of a man who had long loved and served God. He says that ‘on God’ he ‘waits all the day,’ that his ‘eyes are ever toward the Lord,’ that he has ‘integrity and uprightness’ which will ‘preserve him, for he waits upon God,’ and yet side by side with this consciousness of devotion and service there lie the profound sense of sin and of the need of pardon. The better a man is, the more clearly he... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Psalms 25:1-22

The sob of a great sorrow sounds throughout this psalm. The circumstances of its writing were those of desolation, affliction, distress, travail, as the latter part especially shows. Yet the main content is one full of help to all who are in sorrow. It is far more than a wail saddening all who read it. It is the voice of hope and confidence, and tells of succour and of strength. It has three movements in it. The first (vv. Psa 25:1-7 ), and the last (vv. Psa 25:16-22 ) are prayers uttered out... read more

It is a birth-secret.—Ah, has He quickened me into a new life, me who through the past was unprofitable and sad? Of water and of the Holy Ghost has He regenerated my soul? Has He taught me what conversion means, ‘in the intense and incandescent sense,’ to quote the words of a recent biography? This is a secret, between my soul and Him; and... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 25:1-3

The Psalmist’s Initial Plea And Expression Of Confidence That YHWH Will Hear Him (Psalms 25:1-3 ). Psalms 25:1-2 A ‘To you, O YHWH, Do I lift up my soul, O my God.’ (The movement of ‘O my God’ to this first stanza is required by the alphabetical arrangement in the Hebrew text. Its use in the opening stanza also fits in with ‘O God’ in the final line of the Psalm, giving a solemn opening and close to the Psalm, with ‘O YHWH’ the more personal covenant Name, being used in the main body of the... read more

Peter Pett

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 25:1-7

A Prayer For Protection And Guidance From YHWH (Psalms 25:1-7 ). In Psalms 25:1-2 the Psalmist lifts up His soul to God, and prays that his cause might be upheld, and then in Psalms 25:3 he asserts his confidence that God will indeed hear his prayer. This is followed in Psalms 25:4-5 by a request to be taught by YHWH because He is his saving God for whom he continually waits, and a plea in Psalms 25:6-7 that YHWH will remember His own tender mercies rather than the Psalmist’s sins. Thus it... read more
