Psalms119:129
Thy testimonies are wonderful. The ceremonial law is wonderful, because the mystery of our redemption by the blood of Christ is pointed out in it.
2. The prophecies are wonderful, as predicting things, humanly speaking, so uncertain, and at such great distance of time, with so much accuracy.
3. The decalogue is wonderful, as containing in a very few words all the principles of justice and charity.
4. Were we to go to the New Testament, here wonders rise on wonders! All is astonishing; but the Psalmist could not have had this in view. Adam Clarke.
Ver. 129 (first clause).
1. Let us look at five of the wonders of the Bible.
(a) Its authority. It prefaces every statement with a "Thus saith the Lord."
(b) Its light.
(c) Its power it has a convincing, awakening, drawing, life giving power.
(d) Its depth.
(e) Its universal adaptation.
2. Indicate three practical uses.
(a) Study the Bible daily.
(b) Pray for the Spirit to grave it on your heart with a pen of iron.
(c) Practise it daily. D. Macgregor.
