40 Days Commentary | Mon 3/13 | Ps. 32:1–2, 8–11

Posted 13 March 2017

The thirteenth day of our commentary from the International Formation house in Ann Arbor, MI following our Meditations for the 40 Days. John Yocum comments on Psalm 32.

The Lord forgives those who turn to him and repent, and he also teaches them to live in a way that leads to life.

¹ Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered. ² Blessed is the man to whom the LORD imputes no iniquity, and in whose spirit there is no deceit. … ⁸ I will instruct you and teach you the way you should go; I will counsel you with my eye upon you. ⁹ Be not like a horse or a mule, without understanding, which must be curbed with bit and bridle, else it will not keep with you. ¹⁰ Many are the pangs of the wicked; but steadfast love surrounds him who trusts in the LORD. ¹¹ Be glad in the LORD, and rejoice, O righteous, and shout for joy, all you upright in heart! – Psa 32:1-2, 8-11 RSV
