George Leo Haydock, on Ps 98:4
George Leo Haydock · 1774–1849
Ps 98:4 · Douay-Rheims
“And the king’s honour loveth judgment. Thou hast prepared directions: thou hast done judgment and justice in Jacob.”
On this verse:
“Loveth judgment. Requireth discretion. (Calmet) — Hebrew, “the king’s strength loveth judgment.” He does nothing unjustly, as the enemy is forced to confess. (Calmet) — This is the highest glory of a king. (Theodoret) — God requires that we should honour him, by correcting our faults. (St. Augustine) — Directions. Most right and just laws to direct men. (Challoner) — Jacob. There God principally instructed mankind, and punished the perverse. Other nations he seemed to have left to themselves. (Haydock)”
