 There is a double feeling as to this. The commandments of God are loved above all that could be precious to man {v.127}. There is decision of moral judgment. All God's precepts are taken as absolutely and the whole of what is right, and every way of vain falsehood is hated. The decision of good and evil is absolutely by the word. (Practical Reflections on the Psalms: Psalm 119:121-176 by J.N. Darby)
 God’s precepts about “all things” are seen to be right. All is measured by the Word, and all that is false is refused. (Psalm 119:121-128: Division 16 (Am) by H. Smith)
