Psalms 119:1  (King James Version)
ALEPH. Blessed are the undefiled in the way, who walk in the law of the LORD.
 


A
M. 3560. B.C. 444. (Title.)
This Psalm, which was probably composed by Ezra, is another of the alphabetical Psalms: it consists of twenty-two parts, answering to the number of the Hebrew letters; every part being divided into eight verses, and each verse beginning with that letter which forms the title of the part; that is, the first part of eight verses with [Aleph,] the second with [Byth,] etc. It is an elegant, important, and useful
composition; the chief subjects of which are the excellence of God's laws, and the happiness of those who observe them.* Blessed.
