10. Wilt thou show wonders to the dead? While I
live thou canst in me display the glories of thy grace, but when I have passed
into the unknown land, how canst thou illustrate in me thy love? Shall the dead arise and praise thee? True, the souls of departed saints render glory
to God, but the dejected psalmist’s thoughts do not mount to heaven but survey
the gloomy grave: he stays on this side of eternity, where in the grave he sees
no wonders and hears no songs. Selah. At the mouth of the tomb he sits
down to meditate, and then returns to his theme.
