Commentary on Psalms 26:11

Theological / Devotional

I will walk. The psalmist is determined to continue to walk in the path he had hitherto trodden. This resolution is the ground for the prayer in the second part of the verse.

Integrity. Heb. tom, “completeness” (see Prov. 2:7 ; 10:9; 28:6 for other occurrences of tom).

Redeem me. The very fact that the psalmist prays for deliverance from sin, shows that he does not claim to be perfect in the absolute sense.

Be merciful. By hearing my prayer (see Ps. 4:1).
