Verse 4. Light. Darkness. While we are on earth, we are subject to a threefold "darkness"; the darkness of error, the darkness of sorrow, and the darkness of death. To dispel these, God visiteth us, by his Word, with a threefold "light"; the light of truth, the light of comfort, and the light of life. --George Horne.

Verse 4. Gracious, and full of compassion, and righteous -- attributes usually applied to God, but here said of "the upright." The children of God, knowing in their own experience that God our Father is "gracious, full of compassion, and righteous," seek themselves to be the same towards their fellow- men from instinctive imitation of him ( Matthew 5:45 Matthew 5:48 ; Ephesians 5:8 ; Luke 6:36 ). --A. R. Fausset.
