Verse 27. -- That thou mayest give them their meat in due season; or, in his time; every one in its own time which is natural to them, and they have been used to, at which time the Lord gives it to them, and they take it; it would be well if men would do so likewise, eat and drink in proper and due time, Ecclesiastes 10:17 . Christ speaks a word in season to weary souls; his ministers give to every one his portion of meat in due season; and a word spoken in due season, how good and sweet is it? Isaiah 7:4 Luke 7:12 Proverbs 15:23 . --John Gill.
Verse 27. --
These, Lord, all wait on thee, that thou their food may it give them; Thou to their wants attendest; They gather what thou sendest; Thine hand thou openest, all their need supplying, Over lookest not the least, the greatest satisfying.
When thou dost hide thy face a sudden change comes over them Their breath in myriads taken, They die no more to awaken; But myriads more thy Spirit soon createth, And the whole face of nature quickly renovateth.

Verse 27. -- Trace the analogy in the spiritual world. The saints waiting, Psalms 5:27 ; their sustenance from the opened hand, Psalms 5:28 ; their trouble under the hidden face; their death if the Spirit were gone, Psalms 5:29 ; their revival when the Spirit returns, Psalms 5:30 .
