Notes on this verse:
Either those which the Lord himself took and walked in; as those of creation and providence, in which he has displayed his power, wisdom, and goodness. And which are desirable to be known by his people, and require divine instruction and direction. Particularly his ways of grace, mercy, and truth, and the methods he has taken for the salvation of his people, both in eternity and in time. Or those ways which he orders and directs his people to walk in; namely, the paths of duty, and the ways of his worship and ordinances. A greater knowledge of which good men desire to have, as well as more grace to enable them to walk more closely and constantly in them.
“Teach me thy paths”: A petition the same with the other, in different words.
Jesus is the Way. He is the bright and shining Light that we are to follow. The way is very narrow, and sometimes obstacles are in the path. Get your eyes off the obstacles and the fact that the path is narrow. Fix your eyes on Jesus Christ the Light. Follow His lighted path as the next 3 Scriptures state and you will make it all the way.
John 8:12 “Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.”
Ephesians 5:8 “For ye were sometimes darkness, but now [are ye] light in the Lord: walk as children of light:”
1 John 1:7 “But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.”
