Psalms 119:60 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 119:60

I made haste, and delayed not to keep thy commandments.
] As soon as he was sensible of his duty, he immediately complied with it; he consulted not with flesh and blood, but at once yielded a cheerful obedience to the commands of God. Instances of evangelical obedience of this kind we have in the three thousand converts, in Saul, and in the jailer and his house, ( Acts 2:41 ) ( 9:18 ) ( 16:33 ) .
