(66) Good judgment.--More exactly, good taste. Here, however, in a moral, not aesthetic sense. Perhaps tact or delicate moral perception represents it. We may compare St. Paul's use of the Greek words, ?????????? and ?????????? in Philippians 1:9.

Verse 66. - Teach me good judgment and knowledge; i.e. give me sound judgment and wisdom, to discern right from wrong. For I have believed thy commandments. I have looked to them, and trusted in them as my guides in the way of righteousness (comp. ver. 105).
