Commentary on Psalms 25:12

Theological / Devotional

Teach in the way. God is able to do great things for the man who reveres Him. Such a man will learn from God the right path. To him God will reveal the way of His commandments (see Ps. 119:30, 173; John 7:17).

That he shall choose. God will so teach him that he will choose the right way. Man is not an automaton. He has the power of choice. But when a man fears God, his power of choice is exercised in the right direction: he chooses God’s way. Beginning with this verse another series of reflections is given.
