The psalmist acknowledges that the Lord has \u201cdone good\u201d or \u201ctreated him well\u201d \u2014 though I think the psalmist is much less interested in \u201chow\u201d (well) God has treated him and more with \u201cwhat\u201d (good) God has done to him. Notice: \u201cYou have dealt well with your servant\u201d (Ps. 119:65).

\nTime for us to ponder the \u201cgood\u201d (Hebrew tov<\/em>) God has done us. A good time of the year for us to ponder the good God has done for us. And this psalmist knew bitter experience, but when he looks back over his life he sees the \u201cgood\u201d God has done to him.
\nWhile it could be understood that the \u201cgood\u201d is understanding the \u201cword\u201d as \u201cWord\u201d (119:65b), I find it more likely that the \u201cgood\u201d is what God has done in such a way to remain faithful to His own word (as promise). So, \u201caccording\u201d to your word means \u201cas you have promised you would do me good in your promises.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
