Footnotes

  1. Psalm 119:105 The word of the Lord enlightens the psalmist’s path of life; therefore, he has accepted the covenant and obeys the Lord. Even in affliction, the psalmist has learned to give God willing praise, for his joy and determination to please the Lord are far greater than the affliction that is constantly with him.
  2. Psalm 119:105 Your word is a lamp for my feet: the word of the Lord is a guide and life-sustaining source (see Pss 18:29; 97:11; 112:4; Prov 6:23; Jn 8:12).
  3. Psalm 119:106 With a solemn vow I have sworn: the psalmist has made a pact to follow God’s laws (see Neh 10:29).
