Psalms 36:8 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 36:8

They shall be abundantly sallied with the fatness of thy
house
By his "house" is meant the church of God, of his building, and where he dwells; by the fatness of it the provisions there, the word and ordinances, and the blessings of grace which they hold forth; and especially Christ, the fatted calf, the bread of life, whose flesh is meat indeed, and whose blood is drink indeed, and which make a feast of fat things; and these they that trust in the Lord are welcome to eat and drink of abundantly, and to abundant satisfaction; see ( Matthew 5:6 ) ( Psalms 22:26 ) ;

and thou shall make them drink of the river of thy pleasure;
the love of God, whose streams make glad the city of God; or the fulness of grace, which is in Christ, out of which believers draw with joy, and drink with pleasure; or eternal glory and happiness, enjoyed in the presence of God, in which is fulness of joy, and at whose right hand are pleasures for evermore; a never ceasing torrent of them.

Psalms 36:8 In-Context

6 Your righteousness is like the highest mountain; Your judgments, like the deepest sea. Lord, You preserve man and beast.
7 God, Your faithful love is so valuable that people take refuge in the shadow of Your wings.
8 They are filled from the abundance of Your house; You let them drink from Your refreshing stream,
9 for with You is life's fountain. In Your light we will see light.
10 Spread Your faithful love over those who know You, and Your righteousness over the upright in heart.
