Psalms 34:10 Meaning and Commentary
Psalms 34:10
The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger
According to Apollinarius,
``the needy rich, whom famine presses;''see ( Job 4:10 Job 4:11 ) ;
but they that seek the Lord;
by prayer, diligently, with their whole heart, and in the sincerity of their souls; the Targum is, "that seek the doctrine of the Lord"; that seek instruction from him, and to be taught by him: these
shall not want any good [thing]:
which God has purposed to bestow upon them, which he has promised unto them, and provided for them; nor any thing that shall be for their good.
