An Appeal Marked by Specific Entreaty
Psalm 26:1-12
Judge me, O LORD; for I have walked in my integrity: I have trusted also in the LORD; therefore I shall not slide.…


Four lines of supplication.

I. THAT GOD WOULD VINDICATE HIM AND NOT LET HIM BE MIXED UP WITH THOSE HE HATES (vers. 1, 9, 10).

II. THAT GOD WOULD SEARCH AND PROVE HIM (ver. 2).

III. THAT GOD WOULD PURIFY HIM (ver. 3). Upright before men, he does not pretend to be perfect before God.

IV. THAT GOD WOULD ENTIRELY DELIVER HIM FROM THE SURROUNDINGS OF UNGENIAL AND UNHOLY MEN (vers. 9, 10).

(C. Clemence, D. D.)
