Commentary
Commentary on Psalms 50:23
Theological / DevotionalGlorifieth me. See on v. 15. This part of the verse is addressed to the formalists of vs. 7–15. Heartfelt thanksgiving is a fundamental element in true religion. It is surprising how little importance we sometimes attach to the significance of the spirit and expression of gratitude in the life of the Christian. We tend to accept God’s benefits as a matter of course.
Conversation. See on Ps. 37:14.
The salvation of God. To him who serves God with a sincere heart and thus conducts himself in accord with the divine will for him, God will reveal His salvation.
The psalm is timeless in its application. We may participate in all the ordinances of the church, be constant attendants at divine service, give freely to help the poor, engage in much missionary activity, and yet be reprobate if we fail to serve God in spirit, or if we cherish sin in our hearts.
