Pulpit Commentary
Pulpit CommentaryVerse 1. - Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, and whose sin is covered. There are three aspects under which sin is viewed in Holy Scripture: 1. As an offence against God's Law. This is "transgression" - ἀνομία. 2. As an offence against the eternal and immutable rule of right. This is "sin" - ἁμαρτία. 3. As an internal depravation and defilement of the sinner's soul. This is "iniquity " - ἀδικία (comp. Exodus 34:7). Each aspect of sin has its own especial remedy, or manner of removal. The "transgression" is "lifted up," "taken away,"- αἵρεται ἀφαίρεται - more vaguely ἀφίεται. The "sin" is "covered, .... hidden" - καλύπτετα ἐπικαλύπτεται. The "iniquity" is "not imputed" - οὐ λογίζεται. The union of all three, as here in vers. 1, 2, is complete remission or forgiveness.
Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(1, 2) Transgression--sin--iniquity.--The same terms used here to express the compass and heinousness of sin are found, though in different order, in Exodus 34:7. For St. Paul's reading of this passage, see Romans 4:6-7.
