Verse 130. The entrance of Thy words gives light. No sooner do they gain admission into the soul than they enlighten it: what light may be expected from their prolonged indwelling! Their very entrance floods the mind with instruction for they are so full, so clear; but, on the other hand, there must be such an "entrance," or there will be no illumination. The mere hearing of the word ....is of small value by itself,
but when the words of God enter into the chambers of the heart then light is scattered on all sides. The word finds no entrance into some minds because they are blocked up with self conceit, or prejudice, or indifference; but where due attention is given, divine illumination must surely follow upon a knowledge of the mind of God.
Oh, that Thy words, like the beams of the sun, may enter through the window of my understanding, and dispel the darkness of my mind! like the beams of the sun, may enter through the window of my understanding, and dispel the darkness of my mind!
