Commentary on Psalms 73:24

Theological / Devotional

With thy counsel. The psalmist recognizes God’s guidance, according to the divine plan for his life in this present world. Because he had failed to look to God for guidance and counsel, he had almost succumbed to doubt (see Ps. 48:14).

Afterward. When this life is finished.

To glory. The poet here suggests his confidence in a future life. In the glory of heaven there will be no room for doubt. The glory, the true splendor, of the eternal life is contrasted with the “image,” the “dream,” the “vain show,” of the wicked man’s existence.
