John Wesley’s Explanatory Notes on the Bible (1765)

Psalms 146

Verse 4

4His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth; in that very day his thoughts perish.

That day - As soon as ever he is dead. Thoughts - All his designs and endeavours either for himself or for others.

Verse 6

6Which made heaven, and earth, the sea, and all that therein is: which keepeth truth for ever:

For ever - Both because he liveth for ever to fulfil his promises, and because he is eternally faithful.
