John Trapp on Psalms 112:1

PSAL. CXII.

PRaiſe ye the Lord] See Pſal. 111. verſ. 1. Bleſſed is the man that feareth the Lord] That obedientially ſeareth him as aforeſaid, Pſal. 111.10. that feareth the Lord, as Abraham did, Gen. 22.12.Midraſh Till[illegible: 2 letters] in Pſal. 112. who is the bleſſed man here deſcribed, ſay the Jew-Doctors, becauſe he kept the whole Law from [illegible: 1 word] to Tau (this Pſalm alſo is Alphabetical as the former) wiſh his whole heart, delighting in Gods commandements, and haſtening to fulfil them; as when he left his Countrey, circumciſed his family, ſacrificed his ſon.

That delighteth greatly in his commandements] And thereby ſheweth that his fear of God is filial and amicable, not baſe and ſervile, which ever carrieth tor[illegible: 2 letters]ent along with it; and he that ſo ſeareth, is not made perfect in love, I Job. 4.18. cannot but hate him whom he ſo feareth; for Quam metuunt oderunt.
