Summary Of Commentaries Associated With The Selected Verse
| Notes on the Bible, by Albert Barnes, [1834] |
Give me understanding, and I shall keep thy law - Give me right views of it, of its nature and obligation. It is not a prayer that God would give him the faculty of understanding or intelligence; but that he would enable him to take just views of the law. The word is the same as in Psa 119:27, rendered there, "Make me to understand."
Yea, I shall observe it with my whole heart - See Psa 119:2. I will keep it with undivided affections; I will make it the sole guide of my life. |
| Adam Clarke Commentary on the Whole Bible - Published 1810-1826 |
| With my whole heart - I will not trifle with my God, I will not divide my affections with the world; God shall have all. |
2 Blessed [0835] are they that keep [05341] his testimonies [05713], and that seek [01875] him with the whole heart [03820].
