Commenting on Psalm 128:1-6
Behold, that thus shall the man be blessed that feareth the Lord. Mark this. Put a Nota Bene against it, for it is worthy of observation. It is not to be inferred that all blessed men are married, and are fathers; but that this is the way in which the Lord favours godly people who are placed in domestic life. He makes their relationships happy and profitable.
Those who truly fear the Lord and walk in His ways are blessed now and shall be blessed forever. This blessing belongs to all saints universally and to each particular person in his private interests: it shall be well with him.
