Gill's Notes on the Bible

Make thy face to shine upon thy servant,.... That is, lift up the light of thy countenance on me; favour me with thy gracious presence, and communion with thyself; manifest thyself unto me, and shed abroad thy love in my heart; cause the sun of righteousness to arise upon me, and commune with me, from above thy mercy seat; restore to me the joys of thy salvation, and let me have the comforts of thy good Spirit: this prayer is a part of the blessing of the high priest, Numbers 6:25;

and teach me thy statutes; the more communion a man has with God, the more desirous he is of learning and doing his will. This is a frequent petition; see Psalms 119:124.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Make thy face to shine upon thy servant - Hebrew, “Let thy face give light to thy servant.” See the notes at Psalms 4:6.

And teach me thy statutes - See the notes at Psalms 119:12.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Psalms 119:135. Make thy face to shine — Give me a sense of thy approbation. Let me know, by the testimony of thy Spirit in my conscience, that thou art reconciled to me. The godly in all ages derived their happiness from a consciousness of the Divine favour. The witness of God's spirit in the souls of believers was an essential principle in religion from the foundation of the world.
