Psalm 119:71 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 119:71

[It is] good for me that I have been afflicted
The good and profit of which he had observed before; (See Gill on Psalms 119:67). The following end being also answered thereby,

that I might learn thy statutes;
to understand them, and to keep them. Afflictions are sometimes as a school to the people of God, in which they learn much both of their duty and of their privileges; and when they are teaching and instructive, they are for good; see ( Psalms 94:12 ) .

Psalm 119:71 In-Context

69 Os soberbos forjam mentiras contra mim; mas eu de todo o coração guardo os teus preceitos.
70 Torna-se-lhes insensível o coração como a gordura; mas eu me deleito na tua lei.
71 Foi-me bom ter sido afligido, para que aprendesse os teus estatutos.
72 Melhor é para mim a lei da tua boca do que milhares de ouro e prata.
73 As tuas mãos me fizeram e me formaram; dá-me entendimento para que aprenda os teus mandamentos.
