Bible Question:
On Psalm 85:10 "Love and faithfulness meet together; righteousness and peace kiss together." Delaro57@yahoo.com |
Bible Answer: Greetings Delaro! "Psalm 85:10 Mercy and truth are met together—It would be more simple to translate the original:— (85:10) Ka bwrq wyaryl wevy Nkvl dwbk .wncrab Chesed veemeth niphgashu; Tsedek veshalom nashaku,—“ Mercy and truth have met on the way Righteousness and peace have embraced.” This is a remarkable text, and much has been said on it: but there is a beauty in it which, I think, has not been noticed. Mercy and peace are on one side; truth and righteousness on the other. Truth requires righteousness; mercy calls for peace. They meet together on the way; one going to make inquisition for sin, the other to plead for reconciliation. Having met, their differences on certain considerations, not here particularly mentioned are adjusted; and their mutual claims are blended together in one common interest; on which peace and righteousness immediately embrace. Thus, righteousness is given to truth, and peace is given to mercy. Now, Where did these meet? In Christ Jesus. When were they reconciled? When he poured out his life on Calvary." (Adam Clarke's Commentary on the OT) Blessings to you! Nolan (Post # 2,000!) |
