 1 LORD, who shall abide in thy tabernacle? who shall dwell in thy holy hill?*

 2 He that walketh uprightly, and worketh righteousness, and speaketh the truth in his heart.

 3 *He that* backbiteth not with his tongue, nor doeth evil to his neighbour, nor taketh up a reproach against his neighbour.*

 4 In whose eyes a vile person is contemned; but he honoureth them that fear the LORD. *He that* sweareth to *his own* hurt, and changeth not.

 5 *He that* putteth not out his money to usury, nor taketh reward against the innocent. He that doeth these *things* shall never be moved.

## Commentary

 To verse 1
 
[Psalms 15:1](/kjv/psalms/15/1) « A Psalm of David. » LORD, who shall abide in thy tabernacle? who shall dwell in thy holy hill? 

Ver. 1. **Lord, who shall abide in thy tabernacle?** ] Heb. who shall sojourn? for that is our condition while here, in a foreign country, and not at home. The Church militant also is transportative, as well as the tabernacle; and not fixed to one place. Never was the ark settled till set in Solomon’s temple; neither shall we till we come to heaven. David, having described an atheist in [Psalms 14:1-4](/kjv/psalms/14/1-4) , and finding but too many such in the bosom of the Church, politicians, profane persons, hypocrites, who profess that they know God, but in works they deny him, [Titus 1:16](/kjv/titus/1/16) (he that dethroneth a king doth as bad as he that denieth him), he therefore begs of God to disterminate, and put a difference between the righteous and the wicked, by certain infallible distinctive notes and characters, wherein men may surely rest without danger of being deceived; since his testimony is beyond all exception, and he is αυτοπιστος self credible. Here, then, that grand and grave question is propounded by David as a prophet of God, consulting with him, and answered by God himself, from more authority’s sake: Who is the true citizen of Zion, the free denizen of the new Jerusalem, who is a right member of the Church militant, and shall be at length of the Church triumphant? A reverend divine said once to a poor soul, that told him he was troubled about his salvation, I tell thee, said he, it is able to trouble the whole world (Sinners’ Salvation, by Hooker, p. 2). Let a man but approve himself the party here described in desire at least, and endeavour, being humbled for his daily failings, and he may be confident. 

**** 

**Who shall dwell in thine holy hill?** ] Heaven is aptly compared to a hill, hell to a hole. Now who shall ascend into this holy mount? None but those whom this mount comes down unto, that have sweet communion with God in this life present, whose conversation is in heaven, though their commoration be for a while upon earth, who do here eat, and drink, and sleep eternal life.
