Footnotes
- Psalm 119:17 In difficulty and distress, the Lord and his word are a comfort to the godly. God’s blessing comes to those who submit to his law, but his curse comes to those who stray deliberately from his revealed will.
- Psalm 119:17 I may live: here the psalmist is speaking of living in its fullest sense of happiness, security, prosperity—a frequent theme in Ezekiel (Ezek 3:21; 18; 33; see Ps 133:3)—and, of course, fellowship with God (see Pss 16:11; 36:10; Deut 8:3).
