Psalms 119:125 (KJV)
Commentary on Psalms 119:125
I am thy servant; give me understanding (עַבְדְּךָ־אָנִי הֲבִינֵנִי, avdekha-ani havineni)—Servanthood establishes the relationship; understanding (binah) is the request. Biblical service requires illuminated minds, not blind obedience. The verb bin means to discern, perceive deeply—the same word used in Daniel's request for wisdom (Dan 9:2).That I may know thy testimonies (עֵדֹתֶיךָ, edoteiḵa)—God's witnesses or testimonies, His covenant stipulations. Intellectual comprehension aims at relational knowledge (yada). Understanding leads to knowing, head knowledge to heart experience.
