Definitions for Psalms 119:12
Clarke's Psalms 119:12 Bible Commentary
Blessed art thou -
8. He must acknowledge the mercy of God, in so far preserving him from all the consequences of his sin.
9. He should beg of him to become his teacher that his heart and conscience might be instructed in the spirituality of his statutes.
Barnes's Psalms 119:12 Bible Commentary
Blessed art thou, O Lord - Blessed art thou as the author of such a law. This language of benediction or doxology is an outbreak of feeling or adoration in view of such a law - so good, so holy, so suited to direct and guide man. The mind is full of the subject; and the lips give vent to the feeling of gratitude and joy that such a law had been revealed to people.
Teach me thy statutes - Make me more and more acquainted with a law so pure, so rich, so valuable.
