Berean Study Bible

to proclaim
The Hebrew word used here is "נָגַד" (nagad), which means to make known, declare, or announce. In the context of worship, this word emphasizes the active and intentional act of declaring God's attributes. It is not a passive acknowledgment but a deliberate proclamation. Historically, the act of proclaiming was central to Jewish worship, where oral tradition played a significant role in teaching and preserving the faith. This word encourages believers to actively share and declare God's goodness and faithfulness in their lives.

Your loving devotion
The phrase "loving devotion" is translated from the Hebrew word "חֶסֶד" (chesed), which is often rendered as "steadfast love" or "mercy." It signifies a deep, covenantal love that is loyal and enduring. In the biblical context, chesed is a defining characteristic of God's relationship with His people, reflecting His unwavering commitment and kindness. This concept is foundational to understanding God's nature and His interactions with humanity, reminding believers of the assurance and security found in His unchanging love.

in the morning
The mention of "morning" highlights the importance of beginning the day with a focus on God. In ancient Israel, the morning was a time for renewal and reflection, symbolizing new beginnings and the light of God's presence. This practice of morning devotion sets the tone for the day, aligning one's heart and mind with God's purposes. It serves as a reminder of the fresh mercies and opportunities that each day brings, encouraging believers to start their day with gratitude and praise.

and Your faithfulness
The word "faithfulness" is derived from the Hebrew "אֱמוּנָה" (emunah), which conveys a sense of steadfastness, reliability, and trustworthiness. God's faithfulness is a central theme throughout Scripture, underscoring His dependability and the certainty of His promises. This attribute assures believers that God is consistent and true to His word, providing a firm foundation for their faith. It invites reflection on God's past acts of faithfulness as a source of hope and confidence for the future.

at night
The reference to "night" suggests a time of reflection and contemplation. In biblical times, the night was often associated with rest and introspection, a time to recount the day's events and recognize God's hand in them. By acknowledging God's faithfulness at night, believers are encouraged to end their day with a heart of gratitude and trust, recognizing His presence and provision throughout the day. This practice fosters a rhythm of continual praise and reliance on God, both in times of light and darkness.

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers

(2) Lovingkindness . . . faithfulness.--The two most prominent features in the display of the covenant relation of God towards His people. The connection of lovingkindness or grace with the morning, and faithfulness or truth with the evening, is only a result of the Hebrew poetic style; and yet there is a fitness in the association. Love breaks through the clouds of doubt as the morning light rises on the night; and thoughts of God's unerring and impartial justice best suit the evening--the trial time of the day.

Pulpit Commentary

Verse 2. - To show forth thy loving kindness in the morning, and thy faithfulness every night. The suitableness of worship every morning and evening has been almost universally felt. The Mosaic Law provided for it by the establishment of the morning and evening sacrifice (Exodus 29:38, 39), with the accompanying ritual. Jewish piety added a noonday prayer (Psalm 55:17; Daniel 6:10), and Christian zeal established the "seven hours of prayer." Morning and evening still, however, remain, by common acknowledgment, the most appropriate times for worship.
