“The lines are fallen unto me in pleasant places; yea, I have a goodly heritage.”
Psalms 16:6 (KJV)
Commentary on Psalms 16:6
The 'lines' (Hebrew 'chebel'—measuring lines) have fallen in pleasant places, giving David a delightful inheritance. This alludes to land distribution in Canaan but points beyond to spiritual inheritance. The Hebrew 'nachalah' (inheritance) anticipates the New Testament teaching that believers inherit eternal life and all things in Christ (Romans 8:17, 1 Peter 1:4). Reformed theology emphasizes that our true inheritance is God Himself.
