Gill's Notes on the Bible
For their heart was not right with him,.... Neither prepared and ready to any good work, but reprobate thereunto; nor steady, fixed, and established, as a good man's heart is, trusting in the Lord; but wavering, fickle, and inconstant; nor true, faithful, and upright; but turning aside like a deceitful bow, as is afterwards said, Psalms 78:57,
neither were they steadfast in his covenant; which was made with them at Sinai, though they promised to be obedient, and to do all the Lord said unto them; but this covenant they broke, though he were an husband to them; see Exodus 24:7.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
For their heart was not right with him - Luther renders this, “Not fast with him.” The Hebrew word means “to fit, to prepare;” and the idea is, that the heart was not “adjusted” to such a profession, or did not “accord” with such a promise or pledge. It was a mere profession made by the lips, while the heart remained unaffected. See the notes at Psalms 78:8.
Neither were they stedfast in his covenant - In maintaining his covenant, or in adhering to it. Compare Psalms 25:14; Psalms 44:17. See also Psalms 78:8.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Psalms 78:37. Their heart was not right — When the heart is wrong, the life is wrong; and because their heart was not right with God, therefore they were not faithful in his covenant.
