Psalms 119:165 "Great peace have they which love thy law: and nothing shall offend them."

What does this text mean in saying that nothing shall offend them?

Here's a quick word search to aid you as you study context. It's time to get ready for church. Bye for now.

Psalms 119:165 Great peace have they which love thy law: and nothing shall offend them.Psalms 119:165 Great <07227> peace <07965> have they which love <0157> (8802) thy law <08451>: and nothing shall offend <04383> them.

Now, what does that text mean to you, and anybody else who wishes to reply, personally?

To love the law, you must first love the author of the law & be a partaker of His nature.

He alone promised to grant His peace, the tablets of stone do not have that power therefore the author is the person responsible for implanting His peace & stability.

I couldn't have said it any better on the first part of the text.

What about the latter part of the text that says, ..."and nothing shall offend them" ???

Add this to the first sentence about loving Christ & partaking of His nature. Being in that relationship nothing is able to split them & Jesus up, so they never apostatize or fall away. Thus they are never Biblically offended, they stay together forever.

This scripture was one of my late husbands favorite verses...he use to quote it often. He went through some tough times and it comforted him. To me it means when you love the Lord the way you should there is nothing in this world that could happen to you or done to you that would offend you. We will repond to everything, good or bad, the way our Lord and Saviour would have. That will give you such a peace in your heart nothing else can do.

With that being said by both Ed and Avalee, why then are some of us, if not all of us, offended?

My Life Today

A Healthful Life

Peace Through a Consciousness of Rightdoing

Great peace have they which love thy law: and nothing shall offend them. Ps. 119:165

If the mind is free and happy, from a consciousness of rightdoing and a sense of satisfaction in causing happiness to others, it creates a cheerfulness that will react upon the whole system, causing a freer circulation of the blood and a toning up of the entire body. The blessing of God is a healing power, and those who are abundant in benefiting others will realize that wondrous blessing in both heart and life.

Those who follow the path of wisdom and holiness will not be troubled with vain regrets over misspent hours, neither will they be troubled with gloom or horror of mind, as some are, unless engaged in vain, trifling amusements

Amusements excite the mind, but depression is sure to follow. Useful labor and physical exercise will have a more healthful influence upon the mind and will strengthen the muscles, improve the circulation, and will prove a powerful agent in the recovery of health. . . .

The consciousness of rightdoing is the best medicine for diseased bodies and minds. The special blessing of God resting upon the receiver is health and strength.

Doing good is a work that benefits both giver and receiver. If you forget self in your interest for others, you gain a victory over your infirmities. The satisfaction you will realize in doing good will greatly aid you in the recovery of the healthy tone of the imagination. The pleasure of doing good animates the mind and vibrates through the whole body.

A person whose mind is quiet and satisfied in God is in the pathway to health.


In The Blessed Hope

161) Princes persecute me without cause,
But my heart stands in awe of Your words
162 I rejoice at Your word,
As one who finds great spoil.
163 I hate and despise falsehood,
But I love Your law.
164 Seven times a day I praise You,
Because of Your righteous ordinances.
165 Those who love Your law have great peace,
And nothing causes them to stumble.

166 I hope for Your salvation, O Lord,
And do Your commandments.
167 My soul keeps Your testimonies,
And I love them exceedingly.
168 I keep Your precepts and Your testimonies,
For all my ways are before You.
(The New American Standard Bible, 1995 Update)


In the context of this passage...to "stumble" is to sin against God's law or to miss the mark. To have (sanctified) great peace is to be in God's favor. Those who are habitual sinners... stumble and have no sanctified peace and are found liers,(1 John 1:6) they do not know God or His peace...--frenchmon
