He loveth righteousness and judgment
Or "righteous judgment" F25; he delights in the administration
of it himself, ( Jeremiah
9:24 ) ; and he is well pleased with acts of righteousness
done by others, when done according to his word, from love to
him, by faith in him, and with a view to his glory; especially he
loves the righteousness of his son, being satisfactory to his law
and justice, and his people, as clothed with it; and he delights
in the condemnation of sin in the flesh of Christ, and in the
righteous judgment of the world, and the prince of it, by Christ;
the earth is full of the goodness of the Lord;
of the providential goodness of God, of which all creatures
partake; and of the special goodness or grace of God manifested
in Christ Jesus; it was full of it particularly when Christ was
here on earth, who is full of grace and truth; and when the
Gospel of the grace of God was preached everywhere by his
apostles, according to his order, and appeared to all men; and so
it will be especially in the latter day, when multitudes will be
called by grace and converted, and when the earth will be full of
the knowledge of the Lord; and still more when it will become a
new earth, wherein only righteous men will dwell.
