104:45. That they might observe his justifications, and seek after his law.
His justifications… That is, his commandments; which here, and in many other places of the scripture, are called justifications, because the keeping of them makes man just. The Protestants render it by the word statutes, in favour of their doctrine, which does not allow good works to justify.
Psalms Chapter 105
