Gill's Notes on the Bible
u, TZADDI.--The Eighteenth Part.
Ver. 137. TZADDI. Righteous [art] thou, O Lord,.... Essentially, originally, and of himself; naturally, immutably, and universally, in all his ways and works of nature and grace; in his thoughts, purposes, counsels, and decrees; in all the dispensations of his providence; in redemption, in the justification of a sinner, in the pardon of sin, and in the gift of eternal life through Christ;
and upright [are] thy judgments; they are according to the rules of justice and equity; the precepts of the word, the doctrines of the Gospel, as well as the judgments of God inflicted on wicked men, and all the providential dealings of God with his people, and also the final judgment.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Righteous art thou, O Lord ... - This commences a new division of the psalm, indicated by the Hebrew letter Tsaddiy (צ ts) - corresponding with “ts.” The thought in this verse is, that God is right, or righteous, in his judgments, that is, in his law; or, in other words, that his law is founded on principles of equity.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
LETTER צ TSADDI. - Eighteenth Division
Verse Psalms 119:137. Righteous art thou — Thou art infinitely holy in thy nature; and therefore thou art upright in thy judgments - all thy dispensations to men.
