Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 67. - Before I was afflicted I went astray. "Sweet are the uses of adversity." The psalmist feels end confesses that the afflictions, which he has suffered (see comment on ver. 65), have been good for him. They have made him less apt to "go astray" than he was (comp. ver. 71). But now have I kept thy Word (comp. vers. 51, 56, 87, etc.).

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(67) That there is allusion here to the Babylonian exile, and its moral and religious effect on the nation, there can be little doubt.
