You are near
The phrase "You are near" is a profound declaration of God's omnipresence and intimate involvement in the lives of His people. The Hebrew word for "near" is "qarob," which conveys not just physical proximity but also relational closeness. This reflects the covenant relationship between God and His people, where He promises to be with them, guiding and protecting them. Historically, this assurance of God's nearness would have been a source of comfort and strength for the Israelites, especially during times of distress or exile. It reminds believers today that God is not distant or detached but is actively present in their lives, offering His support and guidance.

O LORD
The use of "LORD" in all capital letters signifies the translation of the Hebrew name "Yahweh," the personal and covenantal name of God. This name is deeply significant, as it was revealed to Moses at the burning bush (Exodus 3:14) and is associated with God's eternal, self-existent nature. It emphasizes His faithfulness and unchanging character. In the context of this verse, invoking the name "Yahweh" underscores the personal relationship the psalmist has with God, highlighting trust and reverence. It serves as a reminder of God's sovereignty and His commitment to His promises.

and all Your commandments
The term "commandments" in Hebrew is "mitzvot," which refers to the laws and decrees given by God. These commandments are not arbitrary rules but are expressions of God's will and character. They are designed to guide His people in living a life that is pleasing to Him and beneficial to themselves and others. The psalmist's reference to "all Your commandments" indicates a comprehensive acceptance and acknowledgment of the entirety of God's law. This reflects a heart that is fully devoted to following God's ways, recognizing the wisdom and righteousness inherent in His instructions.

are true
The word "true" in Hebrew is "emet," which conveys the idea of faithfulness, reliability, and trustworthiness. God's commandments are not only true in the sense of being factually correct, but they are also dependable and enduring. They reflect the very nature of God, who is truth itself. In a world where human opinions and cultural norms can be fleeting and unreliable, the psalmist finds assurance in the unchanging truth of God's word. This truth provides a solid foundation for life, offering guidance and stability amidst the uncertainties of the world. It inspires believers to trust in God's word as the ultimate source of truth and moral authority.

Verse 151. - Thou art near, O Lord. If "they draw nigh," still more near art thou, ready to succor and defend and save (comp. Psalm 145:18). And all thy commandments are truth (comp. ver. 142, "Thy Law is the truth;" and see the comment on that passage).
