Commentary on Psalms 37:7
'Rest in the LORD' (Hebrew 'damam,' be still, silent, quiet) and 'wait patiently' emphasize active trust through passive waiting. The repetition of 'fret not' (from v. 1) with specific application—don't fret over the prosperous wicked—intensifies the command. The one who 'prospereth in his way' appears to validate wickedness through success, creating spiritual crisis. Yet God's people must cultivate stillness before God, refusing anxiety's agitation. This rest isn't passivity but confident trust that God governs outcomes.
