On this verse

Draft selections — awaiting the founder’s edit.

"Thou hast heard my vows, and given a real answer to them; for thou hast given me a heritage of those that fear thy name. " Note, (1.) There is a peculiar people in the world that fear God name, that with a holy awe and reverence accept of and accommodate themselves to all the discoveries he is pleased to make of himself to the children of men.

Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710puritan

So that, in singing this psalm, we may find that which is very expressive both of our faith and of our hope, of our prayers and of our praises; and some passages in this psalm are very peculiar.

Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710puritan

The vows we have made we must conscientiously perform. Praising God and paying our vows to him must be our constant daily work; every day we must be doing something towards it, because it is all but little in comparison with what is due, because we daily receive fresh mercies, and because, if we think much to do it daily, we cannot expect to be doing it eternally.
