Psalm 101
Psalm 101 speaks of the King, of the principles according to which He will rule when He takes the kingdom in the name of the LORD (Jehovah). David wrote it under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit for his great Son, when He should take the throne as Israel’s King (
John 1:41, 49
41
He first findeth his own brother Simon, and saith unto him, We have found the Messias, which is, being interpreted, the Christ. (John 1:41)
49
Nathanael answered and saith unto him, Rabbi, thou art the Son of God; thou art the King of Israel. (John 1:49)
), so he asks “When wilt Thou come to Me?”—when will the day of the Solomon-like reign of glory begin?
Psalm 101 is simple in character, and seems to call for little of exposition. In it we see the holiness and righteousness, the grace and perfectness of the Lord Jesus when He “the same Jesus” (
Acts 1:11
11
Which also said, Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven. (Acts 1:11)
), will again be on earth; no longer the despised and rejected of men, the man of sorrows and acquainted with grief, but the Son of Psalm 2, and the Branch of Isaiah 11.
In
verse 8
, instead of “I will early destroy,” read: “Every morning will I destroy.” There will be sin in the millennium, but it will be promptly punished (See
Isaiah 65:20
20
There shall be no more thence an infant of days, nor an old man that hath not filled his days: for the child shall die an hundred years old; but the sinner being an hundred years old shall be accursed. (Isaiah 65:20)
).
