Verses 97-104
13. The sweetness of God’s Word 119:97-104
The psalmist loved God’s law because it gave him more wisdom than his enemies, his teachers, and the elderly sages who did not have it (Psalms 119:97-100). It had enabled him to maintain his personal purity (Psalms 119:101-102, cf. Psalms 119:9; Psalms 119:104). God’s promises were particularly sweet to him (Psalms 119:103).
"While God’s truth is food for our souls, it is not a ’buffet’ from which we select only the things we like." [Note: Wiersbe, The . . . Wisdom . . ., p. 324.]
