Psalms 26:12 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 26:12

My foot standeth in an even place
Or "in a plain" ^F2; in a sure place; on Christ the sure foundation, and who is the plain way and path to eternal life; see ( Psalms 27:11 ) ; or in the ways and worship of God, prescribed by his word; and so denotes steadfastness and continuance in them;

in the congregations will I bless the Lord;
in the assemblies of the saints, in the churches of Christ below, and in the great congregation above, in the general assembly and church of the firstborn; where it is the work of saints now, and will be hereafter, to praise the Lord, for all his mercies temporal and spiritual.
