Commentary

Commentary on Psalms 25:13

Theological / Devotional

Shall dwell. Literally, “pass the night.”

At ease. Literally, “in goodness”; in a safe condition, contrasted with the plight of one who wanders about without a guide. The converted man is like a man who is comfortable and peaceful in his own home (see Ps. 34:11; 37:25).

His seed. His descendants.

Shall inherit. See Ex. 20:12; Lev. 26:3–13. The eternal purpose that the righteous shall inherit the earth is held in check only by accidental and temporary circumstances (see Rom. 8:19–24; Matt. 5:5).
