Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 1-5 - Doubts and fears about the eternal state, are a horrible pit and mir clay, and have been so to many a dear child of God. There is powe enough in God to help the weakest, and grace enough to help the unworthiest of all that trust in him. The psalmist waited patiently; he continued believing, hoping, and praying. This is applicable to Christ His agony, in the garden and on the cross, was a horrible pit and mir clay. But those that wait patiently for God do not wait in vain. Thos that have been under religious melancholy, and by the grace of God have been relieved, may apply ver. #(2) very feelingly to themselves; the are brought up out of a horrible pit. Christ is the Rock on which poor soul can alone stand fast. Where God has given stedfast hope, he expects there should be a steady, regular walk and conduct. God fille the psalmist with joy, as well as peace in believing. Multitudes, by faith beholding the sufferings and glory of Christ, have learned to fear the justice and trust in the mercy of God through Him. Many ar the benefits with which we are daily loaded, both by the providence an by the grace of God.
