Daily Bible Nugget #198, Psalm 119:82

The Nugget:

Psalm 119:82 Mine eyes fail for thy word, saying, When wilt thou comfort me?

My Comment:

The Scriptures are designed for comfort. If you have read the Bible even a little you will have experienced the comfort of the Scripture. One chapter that has provided comfort for many readers is John chapter 14. Some have read this chapter just before bedtime each night. It is surely a good practice. Many other chapters and even verses will serve to provide sought for comfort. A study of God's promises will also lead to some verses of great comfort. Of course, using the cross references furnished for this verse will lead to other related passages that can provide comfort.

For those who desire to DIG DEEPER into this subject:

(1) Consult the cross references given in Nelson’s Cross Reference Guide to the Bible on page 630 for Psalm 119:82.

(2) Consult the cross references given in The New Treasury of Scripture Knowledge on page 675 or in Logos 5 Bible software for Psalm 119:82.

(3) Lacking access to those two resources, consult the cross references for this passage as I have developed them as given below:
