Matthew Poole and continuators on Psalms 73:2

2 But as for me , my feet were almost gone : my steps had well nigh slipt .

Yet I must acknowledge this with grief and shame concerning my self, notwithstanding all my Knowledge of this Truth, and my own Experience and Observation of God's gracious dealings with me, and other good Men.

My Faith in God's Promises and Providence, was almost overthrown by the force of this Temptation; and I was almost ready to repent of my Piety, v. 13. and to follow the example of ungodly Men.

Heb. Were almost poured forth, like Water upon the ground which is unstable, and Runs hither and thither, with great disorder and uncertainty, till it be irrecoverably lost. So was I almost Transported by my own unruly Passion[illegible: 1+ letters], into unworthy Thoughts of God, and a sinful Course of Life.
