Commentary on Psalms 103:17
God's mercy is 'from everlasting to everlasting' ('olam ve'ad olam) upon those who fear Him, contrasting dramatically with grass-like human transience. His righteousness extends to 'children's children,' showing covenant faithfulness across generations. This eternal, multigenerational mercy is the psalm's climax, demonstrating that while humans fade, God's chesed endures forever. The Reformed emphasis on God's eternal covenant recognizes that believers participate in God's everlasting purposes through Christ, who is the same yesterday, today, and forever (Heb 13:8).
