INTRODUCTION TO Psalms 103 A Psalm of David. The Targum adds, "spoken in prophecy,'' as doubtless it was, under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit. Some think it was written by David, after a fit of illness, and his recovery from it, since he speaks of his diseases being healed, and his youth renewed; for which reason the Syriac interpreter suggests it was written in his old age; for he makes the...

Who forgiveth all thine iniquities,.... The psalmist explains here what he means by benefits, and gives a particular enumeration of them; and begins with the blessing of pardon, which is a special and peculiar benefit; it is according to the riches of divine grace, and the multitude of tender mercies; without which all outward blessings signify nothing; and, without a sense of this, a man is not...
Matthew Henry
This psalm calls more for devotion than exposition; it is a most excellent psalm of praise, and of general use. The psalmist, I. Stirs up himself and his own soul to praise God (ver. 1, 2) for his favour to him in particular (ver. 3-5), to the church in general, and to all good men, to whom he is, and will be, just, and kind, and constant (ver. 6-18), and for his government of the world, ver. 19....

Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; Canst thou not praise the Lord for this? One of those iniquities, like a millstone about thy neck, would be sufficient to sink thee into hell; but God forgives them all. He does it now as much as ever he did. He still forgives, for the forgiveness of God to his people is a continuous act. Do thou, then, continually praise him, and rejoice in him. Psa_103:3. Who...
Charles H. Spurgeon
Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; What a great “all” that is! From thy childhood until now, thou hast been full of iniquities, and the Lord has been equally full of forgiveness. Psa_103:3. Who healeth all thy diseases; There is no other physician like him; and all human physicians, whatever skill they may possess, derive it from him. Blessed be the healing God!
Charles H. Spurgeon
Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; Hallelujah, bless the Lord for that! He who has felt the weight of his sin will leap for joy at the thought of the forgiveness of all his iniquities. Psa_103:3. Who healeth all thy diseases; He has restored some of us from the bed of sickness and extreme pain, and he is even now healing our spiritual diseases. Sometimes, it may be that he giveth the bitter...
Charles H. Spurgeon
Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits: who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases; who redeemeth thy life from destruction; who crowneth thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies; This is a better crown than any emperor ever wore, unless he also was a child of God. Priceless gems and jewels rare adorn this wondrous coronet; “who crowneth thee with...
Charles H. Spurgeon
Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; Come, my soul, canst thou not praise God for sin forgiven? This is the sweetest note in our song of praise: “Who forgiveth all thine iniquities,” not merely some of them, the blessed Scapegoat has carried the whole mass into that “No man’s land” where they shall never be found again. Psa_103:3. Who healeth all thy diseases; He is the Physician who can heal...
Charles H. Spurgeon
Who forgiveth all thine iniquities:-- Yes, that is done. Thou art a forgiven sinner tonight. “All thine iniquities,” and they were very many, have gone from thee once for all. Wilt thou not sing about that? Psa_103:3. Who healeth all thy diseases; Thou art raised up from the bed of pain. What is better still, the Lord is at work with thy sinful nature, purging and cleansing thee of thy...
Charles H. Spurgeon
Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; The Lord has done it, and continues to do it: “who forgiveth”— not some of thine iniquities, but all of them, so that you can sing, “The depths have covered them: there is not one of them left.” Why, there is enough to sing of in that alone; we need never leave off praising God for that one mercy of sin forgiven; it is the first of God’s favors, and prepares us...
Charles H. Spurgeon
Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; Come, come, my soul, canst thou not praise God for sin forgiven? That is the first note, and it is the sweetest note, in our song of praise. “Who forgiveth all thine iniquities,” — not some of them but the whole mass the blessed Scapegoat has carried into the “No man’s land of oblivion.” Psa_103:3. Who healeth all thy diseases; He is the Physician for thee, my...
