Charles H. Spurgeon on Psalms 17:15

"I will behold," etc. —In the words we have, 1. The time of his complete and consummate happiness —"When I awake." 2. The matter of his happiness, and the manner of enjoying it; the matter and object —"God's face, or likeness;" the manner of enjoying —"I will behold thy face." 3. His perfect disposition and condition in the state of happiness —"I shall behold in righteousness," having my heart perfectly conformed to the will of God, the perfect and adequate rule of righteousness. 4. The measure of his happiness —"I shall be satisfied;" my happiness will be full in the measure, without want of anything that can make me happy; all my desires shall be satisfied, and my happiness in respect of duration shall be eternal, without a shadow or fear of a change. —William Colvill.
