Psalm 89:31 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 89:31

If they break my statutes
Fixed, settled, appointed ordinances; such as are baptism and the Lord's supper, under the New Testament dispensation; which are the things that are unshaken, and will remain until the second coming of Christ: these are to be kept as they were first delivered; no change and alteration ought to be made in them; so to do is to break and violate them, or "profane" them, as the word ^F9 here used signifies; and which may be done by an unbecoming, irreverent, and indecent attendance on them; as was by some in the Corinthian church, of which the apostle complains, and who for it were taken notice of, and chastened by the Lord, ( 1 Corinthians 11:2 1 Corinthians 11:20-22 1 Corinthians 11:30 1 Corinthians 11:32 ) , and keep not my commandments; which should be kept impartially, with great affection to them, from a principle of love to the Lord, with a view to his glory, and without trusting to and depending upon an obedience to them; for they are not grievous; and, besides, "in", though not "for", keeping them, there is great reward; and a contrary behaviour is displeasing to God: now this particular enumeration of offences, that may be committed by the children of God to Christ, show that all sorts of sins may be committed by them; sins of omission and commission; sins against the law, and against the Gospel; all but the unpardonable one; and that these, though they are observed in a way hereafter mentioned, yet are all forgiven.

Psalm 89:31 In-Context

29 Y pondré su simiente para siempre, y su trono como los días de los cielos.

30 Si dejaren sus hijos mi ley, y no anduvieren en mis juicios;

31 si profanaren mis estatutos, y no guardaren mis mandamientos;

32 entonces visitaré con vara su rebelión, y con azotes sus iniquidades.

33 Mas no quitaré de él mi misericordia, ni falsearé mi verdad.
