“He will not always chide: neither will he keep his anger for ever.”
Psalms 103:9 (KJV)
Commentary on Psalms 103:9
God will not 'always chide' (rib, meaning to contend or accuse) nor keep His anger forever. This doesn't mean God overlooks sin but that His discipline is temporary and purposeful. Anger isn't God's natural state toward His people; it's a response to covenant unfaithfulness. The Reformed understanding of God's wrath recognizes its reality but emphasizes its ultimate purpose in restoration. Christ bore God's eternal wrath for sin (Rom 3:25), ensuring believers experience only temporary, fatherly discipline (Heb 12:6).
