 “Samech”— preservation in the time of judgment (vs. 113-120). (“What Seek Ye?” by C.H. Brown)
 God and His Word, the resource of the one who refuses man’s vain thoughts. (Psalm 119:113-120: Division 15 (Samech) by H. Smith)
 The believer hates the reasoning of the double-minded man (JND), the one who halts, or wavers between two opinions. (Comp. 1 Kings 18:21, and James 1:6-8). In contrast to such he loves the Word that reveals the mind of God. This hatred of man’s thoughts, and love of God’s Word, arouses the hatred of man. (Psalm 119:113-120: Division 15 (Samech) by H. Smith)
 This section is simple in its character. The soul states its own condition, but then looks out to see God's intervention according to the word, hoping in that, but withal apprehends God's judgment on the disobedient. (Practical Reflections on the Psalms: Psalm 119:73-120 by J.N. Darby)
