Gill's Notes on the Bible
Consider how I love thy precepts,.... How ardently and affectionately, how cordially and sincerely, Psalms 119:127; and that was the reason why he was so grieved and distressed when wicked men transgressed and despised them;
quicken me, O Lord, according to thy loving kindness;
Psalms 119:127- :.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Consider how I love thy precepts - Search me. Behold the evidence of my attachment to thy law. This is the confident appeal of one who was conscious that he was truly attached to God; that he really loved his law. It is similar to the appeal of Peter to the Saviour John 21:17, “Lord, thou knowest all things; thou knowest that I love thee.” A man who truly loves God may make this appeal without impropriety. He may be so confident - so certain - that he has true love for the character of God, that he may make a solemn appeal to him on the subject - as he might appeal to a friend, to his wife, to his son, to his daughter, with the utmost confidence that he loved them. A man “ought” to have such love for “them,” that he could affirm this without hesitation or doubt; a man “ought” to have such love for God, that he could affirm this with equal confidence and propriety.
Quicken me ... - See the notes at Psalms 119:25.
