"With length of days will I satisfy him" is, no doubt, a promise belonging more especially to Old Testament times; but if we put emphasis on "satisfy," rather than on the extended duration, it may fairly suggest that, to the trustful soul, life is long enough, whatever its duration, and that the guest, who has sat at God's table here, is not unwilling to rise from it, when his time comes, being "satisfied with favour, and full of the goodness of the Lord." The vision of God's salvation, which is set last, seems from its position in the series to point, however dimly, to a vision which comes after earth's troubles and length of days. The psalmist's language implies not a mere casual beholding, but a fixed gaze. Delitzsch renders "revel in My salvation" (English translation). Cheyne has "feast his eyes with." Such seeing is possession. The crown of God's promises to the man who makes God his dwelling-place is a full, rapturous experience of a full salvation, which follows on the troubles and deliverances of earth, and brings a more dazzling honour and a more perfect satisfaction. PSALM XCII. 1 Good is it to give thanks to Jehovah, And to harp to Thy name, Most High; 2 To declare in the morning Thy loving-kindness, And thy faithfulness in the night seasons, 3 Upon a ten-stringed [instrument], even upon the psaltery, With skilful music on the lyre. 4 For Thou hast gladdened me, Jehovah, with Thy working, In the works of Thy hands will I shout aloud my joy. 5 How great are Thy works, Jehovah, Exceeding deep are Thy purposes! 6 A brutish man knows not, And a fool understands not this. 7 When the wicked sprang like herbage, And all the workers of iniquity blossomed, [It was only] for their being destroyed for ever. 8 But Thou art [enthroned] on high for evermore, Jehovah! 9 For behold Thy enemies, Jehovah, For behold Thy enemies--shall perish, All the workers of iniquity shall be scattered. 10 But Thou hast exalted my horn like a wild ox, I am anointed with fresh oil (?). 11 My eye also gazed on my adversaries, Of them that rose against me as evil-doers my ear heard. 12 The righteous shall spring like the palm, Like a cedar in Lebanon shall he grow. 13 Planted in the house of Jehovah, They shall spring in the courts of our God. 14 Still shall they bear fruit in old age, Full of sap and verdant shall they be. 15 To declare that Jehovah is upright, My Rock, and there is no unrighteousness in Him.
