Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 140. - Thy Word is very pure; or, "is purged, assayed, tried in the fire." God's "promises" are especially meant, which the course of events tests. Therefore thy servant loveth it (comp. vers. 97, 113, 119, 127, 159, 163).

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(140) Pure.--More literally, purged by trial. LXX. and Vulg., "fired." It is not only the excellence, but the proved excellence, of the Divine Word, which is the object of love and adoration here.
