Psalms 119:81-120
119:98-101 | God’s written Word (Your Law) was His wisdom for the Israelites (Deut. 4:5-6). Its purpose was to shape Israel into a just and righteous society that would reflect His goodness to the surrounding nations who lacked such a source of wisdom. God’s Word gives, not just the psalmist but all believers, wisdom that exceeds that of their enemies and teachers.
119:99 | Understanding is used to speak of knowledge that brings about good results. It is often translated as “success” and frequently refers to the benefits of knowing and obeying the written Word of God (Deut. 29:9; Josh. 1:7-8; 1 Kgs. 2:1-3).
