Psalms 37:28 - Exposition

For the Lord loveth judgment (comp. Psalms 11:7 ). "Judgment"— משׁפט —is here "justice," "righteousness;" as in Psalms 33:5 ; Psalms 99:4 ; Psalms 103:6 , etc. And forsaketh not his saints (see verse 25; and comp. Isaiah 41:17 ; Isaiah 42:16 , etc.). They are preserved for ever . Something has probably fallen out at the commencement of this line, which ought to begin with the letter ain. But the seed of the wicked shall be out off. The wicked shall perish, not only in their own persons, but in their posterity, who shall be "cut off from the land of the living" ( Isaiah 53:8 ), and have "their name blotted out" ( Psalms 109:13 ).
