Psalms 136:24 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 136:24

And hath redeemed us from our enemies
Temporal enemies, tyrants, and oppressors: and spiritual ones, sin, Satan, the world, the law, death, and hell;

for his mercy [endureth] for ever;
as is clearly seen in redemption by Jesus Christ, where mercy and truth have met together; and which is a distinguishing mercy to the sons of men, not granted to angels.
