"I have longed for thy salvation, O LORD; and thy law is my delight."
Commentary
Gill's Exposition
I have longed for thy salvation, O Lord,.... For temporal salvation and deliverance from enemies; and for spiritual and eternal salvation by the Messiah; and for the Messiah himself, the
author of it: Kimchi interprets it of the salvation of the soul in the world to come; see Psa 119:81 ; and thy law is my delight; or "delights" (n); his exceeding great delight, as being pure and perfect, holy, just, and good; a transcript of the divine nature, a revelation of the divine will; as in the hands of Christ, his surety and Saviour, who had engaged to fulfil it for him; and as written in his heart; and as delivered from the curse and condemnation of it, through the suretyship engagements of Christ. (n) "deliciae meae", Montanus, Tigurine version.
