The Hebrew word for "loving devotion" is "chesed," which encompasses a rich tapestry of meanings including mercy, kindness, and covenantal love. This word is central to understanding God's character in the Old Testament, reflecting His unwavering commitment to His people. Historically, "chesed" is not just an emotional feeling but an active, enduring loyalty that God shows to those who are in a covenant relationship with Him. The psalmist's request for God to "extend" this devotion suggests a desire for the ongoing experience of God's faithful love, which is both a personal and communal blessing. to those who know You and Your righteousness to the upright in heart Parallel Commentaries ...
