Charles Ellicott Commentary Psalms 101:8

"Morning by morning will I destroy all the wicked of the land; To cut off all the workers of iniquity from the city of Jehovah." — Psalms 101:8 (ASV)

Early. — Literally, in the morning: referring, as Perowne observes, to the Eastern custom of holding courts of law in the early morning (Jeremiah 21:12; 2 Samuel 15:2; Luke 22:66; John 18:28).

City of the Lord. — For similar expressions, see Psalms 46:4; Psalms 48:2; Psalms 48:8. The city must bear out its name in its character.
