Psalm 107:14 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 107:14

He brought them out of darkness
In which they were by nature, into marvellous light; to see their interest in Christ, and his salvation; and to have the light of joy and comfort in him.

And the shadow of death;
quickening them by his Spirit and grace; causing them to live by faith upon him; entitling them to eternal life, and securing them from eternal death.

And brake their bands in sunder;
their cords and fetters of affliction; or their bands of sin, and the power of it; and loosed them whom Satan had bound and kept so for many years, and brought them into the glorious liberty of the children of God.

Psalm 107:14 In-Context

12 Onde egli aveva abbattuto il cuor loro con affanni, Ed erano caduti; e non vi era alcuno che li soccorresse.

13 Ma, avendo gridato al Signore, mentre erano in distretta, Egli li ha salvati dalle loro angosce;

14 E li ha tratti fuor delle tenebre, e dell’ombra della morte; Ed ha rotti i lor legami.

15 Celebrino adunque appo il Signore la sua benignità, E le sue maraviglie appo i figliuoli degli uomini.

16 Perciocchè egli ha rotte le porte di rame, Ed ha spezzate le sbarre di ferro.
