• The soul of him who opens out his heart to God is much more in presence of the persecutors and enemies, God's deliverance and of the need of help, than in the beginning. There what the law was for the heart was more in view. So it ever is. With Christ the word of blessing begins; at the end he is in presence of the enemies and looks for deliverance. So Paul: he begins with carrying out of the blessing; at the close he has to do with persecution and desertion too. So ever, when good is persevered in, because the testimony of God in every shape and faithfulness draws out opposition. (“Practical Reflections on the Psalms: Psalm 119:121-176” by J.N. Darby)
• Faithfulness in persecution, hatred of evil, and love of the truth. (“Psalm 119:153-160: Divison 20 (Resh)” by H. Smith)
• The psalmist is conscious that God is not indifferent to the trials of those who remain faithful to His Word. Therefore he appeals to the Lord to look upon his affliction. (“Psalm 119:153-160: Divison 20 (Resh)” by H. Smith)
• The godly man is marked by faithfulness in persecution, hatred of evil, and love of the truth. He draws encouragement in his present distress. (“Psalm 119:153-160: Divison 20 (Resh)” by H. Smith)
• “Resh”—steadfastness (vs. 153-160). (“Book 5.” by B. Anstey)
