Psalm 73:16-20 NASB,NASB

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Psalms 73:1-28

Psalms 67:0 The first half dozen of these psalms form a group millennial and Messianic. The first is millennial. It is Israel who speaks; the psalm cannot be appreciated unless the word “us” in Psalms 67:1 is so applied. When God has mercy upon and blesses Israel in the latter days, His way and His saving health unto all nations (Psalms 67:2 ) will begin to be known. In other words, the present age is one of out-gathering, but the age to come (millennial) will be one of in-gathering. God is now... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Psalms 73:15-22

Reader! do mark what it was which the Lord blessed to the mind of his servant: namely, his visits to the sanctuary. It is in God's house that we are brought acquainted with God's ways. The secret of the Lord is with them that fear him, and he will show them his covenant; Psalms 25:14 . Depend upon it, the faithful, constant, diligent, and humble waiting upon the Lord in his ordinances, reading his word, and drawing nigh in Jesus to the mercy-seat; these are the methods God is pleased to honour,... read more

George Haydock's Catholic Bible Commentary - Psalms 73:16

Morning. Aurora. Hebrew, "the light," which existed before the sun. (Berthier) --- Yet most understand the moon, (Calmet) or, in general, "the luminaries." (St. Jerome) (Haydock) read more

George Haydock's Catholic Bible Commentary - Psalms 73:17

Spring. Hebrew, "and winter," under which two the Jews comprised all the seasons, (Genesis viii. 22.) as the Africans and Danes are said to do still. (Calmet) --- Yet choreph is used for youth, "the spring" of life, Job xxix. 4. (Berthier) read more

George Haydock's Catholic Bible Commentary - Psalms 73:18

This. "Congregation." (Theodoret) --- Septuagint add, "thy creature." Hebrew is feminine. But it is used instead of our neuter. (Calmet) --- Consider this insolent language; the enemy, &c., ver. 22. (Haydock) read more

George Haydock

George Haydock's Catholic Bible Commentary - Psalms 73:19

To thee. St. Jerome, "the soul intrusted in thy law." (Haydock) --- Hebrew has now torec, which is rendered, "thy turtle dove." But the Septuagint have read d, instead of r, better; (Calmet) and Houbigant rejects with disdain the present Hebrew, though that figurative expression would have the same meaning.

George Haydock's Catholic Bible Commentary - Psalms 73:20

The obscure of the earth. Mean and ignoble wretches have been filled, that is, enriched, with houses of iniquity, that is, with our estates and possessions, which they have unjustly acquired. (Challoner) --- Or the captives may thus complain, that they are forced to live among infidels, in constant danger of transgressing the law, (Calmet) while their children are brought up in sin, (Berthier) and ignorance. (Haydock) --- Infidels are full of all sorts of iniquity, which they hide in their... read more

Matthew Henry

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 73:15-20

15-20 The psalmist having shown the progress of his temptation, shows how faith and grace prevailed. He kept up respect for God's people, and with that he restrained himself from speaking what he had thought amiss. It is a sign that we repent of the evil thoughts of the heart, if we suppress them. Nothing gives more offence to God's children, than to say it is vain to serve God; for there is nothing more contrary to their universal experience. He prayed to God to make this matter plain to him;... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Psalms 73:13-28

The Believer's Trust at the Realization of the Truth v. 13. Verily, I have cleansed my heart in vain, in view of the offense given by the prosperity of the ungodly, and washed my hands in innocency, making diligent efforts to live a holy life before the Lord. v. 14. For all the day long have I been plagued, buffeted with troubles on every hand, and chastened every morning, some new visitation of the Lord striking him with every new day. The psalmist, however, guards against such blasphemous... read more
