Commentary on Psalms 41:3
Theological / DevotionalStrengthen him. As he has ministered to the needs of the sick, so he may expect, as a general principle, that God will enable him to bear sickness when it comes to him. Goodness is the reward of goodness.
Wilt make. Heb. haphak, “to turn,” “to change.” If the language is literal, it suggests the comfort given the sick man when his bed is changed. Nothing marks the experienced nurse better than her ability to make the bed of the sick without disturbing him. If the language is figurative, the psalmist is referring to relief from suffering, perhaps meaning that God will change the bed from one of suffering to one of convalescence. God does not promise always to heal, but He does promise relief and comfort (see 1 Cor. 10:13).
