Commentary on Psalms 65:10

Theological / Devotional

Ridges. Elsewhere, “furrows” (see Job 31:38, 39:10).

Settlest. Literally, “makest level,” or “causest to go down.”

Furrows. Rather, “clods.” The Hebrew text contains the idea that the rain falls on the clods between the furrows and levels the ground.

The springing thereof. The vegetation that springs from the soil under the blessing of the rain.
