Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 14. - I will praise thee. The note of praise, which has rung through the whole poem in an undertone, is here openly struck. Reflections upon God's wonderful works must overflow into praise; and the phenomena of man's creation and birth are, at least, as calculated to call forth praise and adoration as any other. For I am fearfully and wonderfully made. The wonderfulness of the human mechanism is so great that, if realized, it produces a sensation of fear. It has been said that, if we could see one-half of what is going on within us, we should not dare to move. Marvelous are thy works; i.e. thy doings generally. And that my soul knoweth right well. The extent of the marvelousness I may not be able to comprehend; but at least I know the fact that they are marvelous, That fact I know "right well."

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(14) For I am . . .--Literally, because I am fearfully separated or distinguished (see Note on Psalm 26:7; Psalm 40:5), which might mean separated from the womb, i.e., born. (Comp. Galatians 1:15; Psalm 22:10.) Or if the reference is national rather than individual, it would imply, as so frequently, the choice of Israel by Jehovah in distinction to other races.
