Psalms 119:66

119:66 Teach me proper discernment and understanding!

For I consider your commands to be reliable.

Psalms 51:19

51:19 Then you will accept the proper sacrifices, burnt sacrifices and whole offerings;

then bulls will be sacrificed on your altar.


tn Heb “goodness of taste.” Here “taste” refers to moral and ethical discernment.

tn Heb “for I believe in your commands.”

tn Or “desire, take delight in.”

tn Heb “then they will offer up bulls.” The third plural subject is indefinite.

sn Verses 18-19 appear to reflect the exilic period, when the city’s walls lay in ruins and the sacrificial system had been disrupted.
