Psalm 119:33

33 HE Enséñame, oh SEÑOR, el camino de tus estatutos, y lo guardaré hasta el fin

Psalm 119:33 Meaning and Commentary

(h) , HE.--The Fifth Part.

Psalms 119:33

HE. Teach me, O Lord, the way of thy statutes
Which they point unto, and direct to walk in; not only the statutes and ordinances themselves, the theory of them, but the practice of them. This is taught in the word, and by the ministers of it; but none so effectually teach as the Lord himself, ( Isaiah 2:3 ) ( Matthew 22:16 ) ( 28:20 ) ;

and I shall keep it [unto] the end;
keep the way unto the end of it: or rather to the end of life, all my days, and never depart out of it, or turn to the right hand or the left; but walk on in it as long as I live: or, "I shall observe it, [even] the end" ^F3; the end of the way of thy statutes or commandments. Now the end of the commandment is charity or love, which is the fulfilling of it: though that is perfectly fulfilled by none but by Christ, the end of the law for righteousness, ( 1 Thessalonians 1:5 ) ( Romans 10:4 ) . The word for "end" signifies a "reward"; so Aben Ezra interprets it, and refers to ( Psalms 19:11 ) ; but Kimchi denies the law is to be kept for the sake of reward; which is right: rather the sense is, I will keep it by way of retribution, or in gratitude for teaching the way. The Targum is,

``and I will keep unto perfection;''

which cannot be done by sinful man.
