Psalm 37:6 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 37:6

And he shall bring forth thy righteousness as the light
That is, the good man having committed his cause to him that judgeth righteously, he will, in his own time, clearly make it appear that it is a righteous one, both to himself and others, in whatsoever obscurity it may have lain;

and thy judgment as the noonday;
the same as before, unless rather the righteousness of Christ, which is the believer's by imputation, and is a justifying one in the judgment of God, should be meant; see ( Micah 7:9 ) ; and the phrases may denote not barely the revelation of it in the Gospel, but the more clear manifestation of it to the believer himself, from faith to faith; or as it will be still more clearly revealed and declared at the day of judgment, when those who are clothed with it shall shine as the sun in the kingdom of their Father, and be clear of all those charges and imputations which they have lain under in this life.

Psalm 37:6 In-Context

4 und ergötze dich an Jehova: so wird er dir geben die Bitten deines Herzens.

5 Befiehl Jehova deinen Weg und vertraue auf ihn! Und er wird handeln;

6 und er wird deine Gerechtigkeit hervorkommen lassen wie das Licht, und dein Recht wie den Mittag.

7 Vertraue still dem Jehova und harre auf ihn! Erzürne dich nicht über den, dessen Weg gelingt, über den Mann, der böse Anschläge ausführt!

8 Stehe ab vom Zorn und laß den Grimm! Erzürne dich nicht! Nur zum Übeltun verleitet es.
