John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 130:6

Verse 6 6.My soul hath waited for the Lord before the watchers of the morning. In this verse he expresses both the ardor and the perseverance of his desire. In saying that he anticipated the watchmen, he shows by this similitude with what diligence and alacrity he breathed after God. And the repetition is a proof of his perseverance; for there is no doubt that thereby he intended to express an uninterrnitted continuance of the same course, and consequently perseverance. Both these qualities in... read more

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 130:7

Verse 7 7.But let Israel hope in Jehovah. After having spoken of himself, and exhibited in his own person an example for all to follow, he now applies the doctrine to the whole body of the Church. It is to be noticed that the foundation upon which he would have the hope of all the godly to rest is the mercy of God, the source from which redemption springs. In the first clause he reminds them that although they bring with them no worth or merits of their own, it ought to suffice them that God is... read more

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 130:8

Verse 8 8.And he shall redeem Israel from all his iniquities. Here the Psalmist applies more closely to the Church what he has said in the preceding verse. He concludes that it is not to be doubted that God, who has it in his power to save by multiplied means, will prove himself the deliverer of the people whom he has chosen. By these words he teaches us, that when we have evidence of our being adopted by God, we ought also to regard our salvation as certain. His meaning might be explained more... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Psalms 130:1-8

Penitence and hope. We have the psalmist hero in— I. THE DEPTH OF SOME GREAT DISTRESS . It may be some severe loss he has sustained, and consequent loneliness of soul; or it may be some great disappointment of his hopes or defeat by the enemy; or it may be the persecution of those who reproach him for serious inconsistency; or it may be peril in which his cause or his life is threatened; or it may be a sad sense of personal unworthiness. Bat, whatever it may have been, it... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Psalms 130:1-8

De profundis. This psalm, whose date, authorship, and special reference no one certainly knows, nevertheless presents to us three marked stages in the experience of the writer of the psalm. I. IN THE DEPTHS . ( Psalms 130:1-3 .) Undoubtedly he knew what these were; and very deep depths they appear to have been. 1. His sad condition seems to have been brought about , not so much by any outward circumstances of his life , as by some inward spiritual distress . His... read more

A cry to God for the forgiveness of sin. I. THE PROFOUND MISERY WHICH THE CONSCIOUSNESS OF SIN PRODUCES . ( Psalms 130:1-3 .) "Out of the depths. If thou shouldest mark," etc; iniquities, other "depths" than the depths of poverty or bodily affliction. II. THE STRONGEST MOTIVE TO THE REVERENT FEAR OF GOD . ( Psalms 130:4 .) "God freely forgives sin—not that men may think lightly of sin, but that they may magnify his grace and mercy in its... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Psalms 130:5

I wait for the Lord, my soul doth wait . "Waiting for the Lord" is patiently bearing our affliction, whatever it may be, and confidently looking forward to deliverance from it in God's good time. The expression, "my soul doth wait," is stronger than "I wait;" it implies heart-felt trust and confidence. And in his word do I hope ; i . e . his word of promise. read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Psalms 130:5-6

Our waiting is a watching. "In the year 1830, on the night preceding the first of August, the day the slaves in our West Indian colonies were to come into possession of the freedom promised them, many of them, we are told, never went to bed at all. Thousands and tens of thousands of them assembled in their places of worship, engaging in devotional duties and singing praises to God, waiting for the first streak of the light of the morning of that day on which they were to be made free. Some... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Psalms 130:6

My soul waiteth for the Lord more than they that watch for the morning : I say, more than they that watch for the morning ; i.e. more eagerly, more anxiously, than even the night watchman, tired with his long vigil. Again the repetition adds force. read more
