Jerome

Homily 25, on Psalm 97 (420)

He has remembered his mercy. 'He has shut up all things under sin, that he might have mercy on all.' And his truth to the house of Israel. He remembers mercy: he fulfills truth. He has remembered his mercy: that is, toward the people of the nations. And his truth to the house of Israel: fulfilling by this work what he had promised to the patriarchs.

Matthew Henry

1662–1714

Commentary on the Whole Bible (1710)

Righteousness and salvation are often put together; as Isa. lxi. Salvation denotes the redemption itself, and righteousness the way in which it was wrought, by the righteousness of Christ.

Matthew Henry

1662–1714

Commentary on the Whole Bible (1710)

God is said, in sending Christ, to perform the mercy promised to our fathers, and to remember the holy covenant, Luke i. It was in consideration of that, and not of their merit.

The Nineteenth Century1 voice

Charles Spurgeon

1834–1892

The Treasury of David, Vol. 4 (1874)

He hath remembered his mercy and his truth toward the house of Israel. To them Jesus came in the flesh, and to them was the gospel first preached; and though they counted themselves unworthy of eternal life, yet the covenant was not broken, for the true Israel were called into fellowship and still remain so. The mercy which endureth for ever, and the fidelity which cannot forget a promise, secure to the chosen seed the salvation long ago guaranteed by the covenant of grace. All the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God.
