Taw I recounted my ways The phrase "I recounted my ways" suggests a deliberate and introspective act of self-examination. The Hebrew root for "recounted" is "saphar," which means to count, recount, or declare. This implies a thorough and honest assessment of one's life and actions. In the context of Psalm 119, which is a meditation on the law of the Lord, this recounting is not merely a listing of deeds but a spiritual inventory taken before God. Historically, recounting one's ways before God is a practice seen throughout the Old Testament, where individuals and communities reflect on their faithfulness to God's covenant. This act of recounting is a step towards repentance and renewal, aligning one's life with divine precepts. and You answered me teach me Your statutes My ways.--Or, as we should say, my courses, my past life, including, as the context shows, confession of sins and prayer for pardon.
