He has given food unto them that fear him: he will ever be mindful of his covenant.
All Commentaries on Psalms 111:5 Go To Psalms 111
George Leo Haydock
AD 1849
Food. Manna in the desert, and what is necessary for us who were in distress in Babylon, Psalm cvi. 5. In the spiritual sense, (Calmet) He has given us Jesus Christ, (St. Augustine) or the holy Eucharist. (Worthington)
St. Chrysostom understands the word of God, (Calmet) which profits those only who fear the Lord, (Berthier) and serve him with love. (Haydock)
Covenant. God has not acted contrary to the covenant with Abraham, in proposing the gospel, which was all along foretold, as St. Paul shews. (Berthier)
He will for ever protect his Church, and show forth the powerful operation of his death, and of all his mysteries. (Worthington)
