Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Psalms 25:1-7

Here we have David's professions of desire towards God and dependence on him. He often begins his psalms with such professions, not to move God, but to move himself, and to engage himself to answer those professions. I. He professes his desire towards God: Unto thee, O Lord! do I lift up my soul, Ps. 25:1. In the foregoing psalm (Ps. 24:4) it was made the character of a good man that he has not lifted up his soul to vanity; and a call was given to the everlasting gates to lift up their heads... read more

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Psalms 25:8-14

God's promises are here mixed with David's prayers. Many petitions there were in the former part of the psalm, and many we shall find in the latter; and here, in the middle of the psalm, he meditates upon the promises, and by a lively faith sucks and is satisfied from these breasts of consolation; for the promises of God are not only the best foundation of prayer, telling us what to pray for and encouraging our faith and hope in prayer, but they are a present answer to prayer. Let the prayer... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Psalms 25:6

Remember, O Lord, thy tender mercies and thy loving kindnesses ,.... Not the providential mercy and kindness of God, in the care of him in his mother's womb, at the time of his birth, in his nurture and education, and in the preservation of him to the present time; but the special mercy, grace, and love of God in Christ: the sense of the petition is the same with that of Psalm 106:4 ; which are expressed in the plural number, because of the largeness and abundance of it, and because of the... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Psalms 25:7

Remember not the sins of my youth ,.... Original sin, in which he was born, and the breakings forth of corrupt nature in infancy, he brought into the world with him, together with all the youthful lusts and vanities to which that age is addicted; and sometimes the sins of youth are in some persons remembered by God, and punished in old age; and if not, they are brought to remembrance through the dispensations of Providence: and the people of God are chastised for them then, and are ready to... read more

John Gill

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Psalms 25:8

Good and upright is the Lord ,.... He is essentially, originally, and independently good of himself in his own nature, and he is providentially good to all his creatures; and he is in a way of special grace and mercy good to his own people: and he is "upright", just in himself, righteous in all his ways and works, and faithful in all his promises; and the consideration of these excellent perfections of his encouraged the psalmist to entertain an holy confidence, that his petitions,... read more

Adam Clarke

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 25:6

Remember, O Lord, thy tender mercies, and thy loving-kindness - The word רחמים rachamim , means the commiseration that a man feels in his bowels at the sight of distress. The second word, חסדים chasadim , signifies those kindnesses which are the offspring of a profusion of benevolence. They have been ever of old - Thou wert ever wont to display thyself as a ceaseless fountain of good to all thy creatures. read more

Adam Clarke

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 25:7

Remember not the sins of my youth - Those which I have committed through inconsiderateness, and heat of passion. According to thy mercy - As it is worthy of thy mercy to act according to the measure, the greatness, and general practice of thy mercy; so give me an abundant pardon, a plentiful salvation. For thy goodness' sake - Goodness is the nature of God; mercy flows from that goodness. read more

Adam Clarke

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 25:8

Good and upright is the Lord - He is good in his nature, and righteous in his conduct. Therefore will he teach sinners - Because he is good, he will teach sinners, though they deserve nothing but destruction: and because he is right, he will teach them the true way. read more

John Calvin

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 25:6

Verse 6 6.Remember, O Jehovah; From this it appears, in the first place, that David was grievously afflicted and tried, so much so that he had lost all sense of God’s mercy: for he calls upon God to remember for him his favor, in such a manner as if he had altogether forgotten it. This, therefore, is the complaint of a man suffering extreme anguish, and overwhelmed with grief. We may learn from this, that although God, for a time, may withdraw from us every token of his goodness, and,... read more

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 25:7

Verse 7 7.Remember not the sins of my youth. As our sins are like a wall between us and God, which prevents him from hearing our prayers, or stretching forth his hand to help us, David now removes this obstruction. It is indeed true, in general, that men pray in a wrong way, and in vain, unless they begin by seeking the forgiveness of their sins. There is no hope of obtaining any favor from God unless he is reconciled to us. How shall he love us unless he first freely reconcile us to himself?... read more
