John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 19:9

Verse 9 9.The fear of Jehovah is clean. By the fear of God we are here to understand the way in which God is to be served; and therefore it is taken in an active sense for the doctrine which prescribes to us the manner in which we ought to fear God. The way in which men generally manifest their fear of God, is by inventing false religions and a vitiated worship; in doing which they only so much the more provoke his wrath. David, therefore, here indirectly condemns these corrupt inventions,... read more

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 19:10

Verse 10 10.More to be desired are they than gold. The Psalmist now exalts the law of God both on account of its price and sweetness. This commendation depends on the commendations given in the preceding verses; for the many and great advantages which he has just now enumerated, ought justly to make us account heavenly truth the highest and most excellent treasure, and to despise, when compared with it, all the gold and silver of the world. Instead of the word fine gold, which the Latins have... read more

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 19:11

Verse 11 11.Moreover, by them is thy servant made circumspect. These words may be extended generally to all the people of God; but they are properly to be understood of David himself, and by them he testifies that he knew well, from his own experience, all that he had stated in the preceding verses respecting the law. No man will ever speak truly and in good earnest of heavenly truth, but he who has it deeply fixed in his own heart. David therefore acknowledges, that whatever prudence he had... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Psalms 19:1-10

God's revelation of himself in nature and in his Word. In nature it is continuous. Day utters speech unto day, night unto night. It is speechless ; it has a language, but it is not articulate. It is universal. Gone out through all the world, and through all time. In his Word it his a converting power—power to make wise, to rejoice the heart and enlighten the eyes. It endures for ever; unlike the firmament, and is entirely true and righteous. I. A COMPARISON OF THESE ... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Psalms 19:1-14

Rhythmically, the divisions correspond to the changes in the thought. There is first a stately movement, continued for six versos, devoted to the glories of the universe; then a livelier strain in longer (mostly double ) lines, praising the Law of the Lord, and extending to five verses only; finally, a conclusion in short, broken lines, limited to three verses. The psalm is generally allowed to be David's, and is declared to be his by the title. There are no internal indications by... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Psalms 19:1-14

Nature as a preacher. Mark— I. THE GRAND SUBJECT . "The glory of God." II. THE SPLENDID AUDIENCE . "All the earth." III. THE FAITHFUL DELIVERY . Marked by truth, freshness, constancy, impartiality (verses 1-4). Other preachers cannot continue by reason of death. Hence there is change. One succeeds another. But this preacher goes on without break or weariness from day to day and age to age, bearing witness for God ( Romans 1:20 ; Acts 14:17 ). IV. THE ... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Psalms 19:7-10

The Word of God. This passage may be regarded as teaching three things concerning the Word of God, or the Bible. I. WHAT IT IS . Six names are used, and six different statements are made with regard to the Bible. 1 . It is "the Law of the Lord," and, as such, it is "perfect." 2 . It is "the testimony of the Lord," and, as such, it is "sure." In it God speaks with solemn earnestness and insistance, and what he says may be trusted. 3 . It is "the statutes of the Lord;"... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Psalms 19:7-11

The transition from the glories of the material universe to the "law of the Lord" is abrupt and startling. Some go so far as to say that there is no connection at all between the first and second parts of the psalm. But it is the law and order that pervades the material universe which constitutes its main glory; and the analogy between God's physical laws and his moral laws is evident, and generally admitted (see the great work of Bishop Butler, part 1.). read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Psalms 19:8

The statutes of the Lord are right, rejoicing the heart; rather, the precepts of the Lord are right. Another of the many synonyms under which the Law may be spoken of (see Dr. Kay's preface to the hundred and nineteenth psalm). God's precepts "rejoice the heart" of the godly. They are not felt as stern commands, but as gracious intimations of what God desires man to do for his own good. The commandment of the Lord is pure; i.e. spotless, clean, without fault (comp. Psalms 19:7 ,... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Psalms 19:8-14

The voice of Jehovah in his Word. The Prophet Isaiah, in his forty-fifth chapter, and in the eighth and ninth verses, refers both to the work of God's hands in the world which he has created, and to the words of his lips in the promises he has made; and in both cases it is said, "not in vain" "Not in vain" is the earth formed; "not in vain" is the promise uttered. In both there is a Divine aim and purpose. That antithesis between the works and the Word of God is more ancient than Isaiah's... read more
