Psalm 84:12 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 84:12

O Lord of hosts, blessed is the man that trusteth in thee,
&c.] For grace and glory, and every good thing; that trusts in the Lord at all times, and not in the creature, or in an arm of flesh; but in the Lord of hosts and armies, in whom is everlasting strength, and is the sun and shield of his people: happy are such that trust in him, whether they have ability or opportunity of going up to the house of the Lord, or not; they are happy that have and make use thereof, and so are they that trust in the Lord, whether they have or not; they are safe, being as Mount Zion, which can never be removed; and do and shall enjoy perfect peace and solid comfort here, and eternal happiness hereafter; see ( Jeremiah 17:5 Jeremiah 17:7 ) ( Isaiah 26:3 Isaiah 26:4 ) . The Targum is,

``blessed is the man that trusteth in thy Word;''

in Christ, the essential Word.
