Commentary on Psalms 26:8

Theological / Devotional

I have loved. It is good to shun evil, but if religious activity ends there, the experience is negative; it is better to go to the place where God is—that is positive (see on Ps. 27:4).

Honour. Heb. kabod, either “honor” or “glory.” In the sanctuary, where the distractions of the world are shut out, men may become conscious of God’s glory.
