John Gill Commentary Psalms 119:152

"Of old have I known from thy testimonies, That thou hast founded them for ever. RESH." — Psalms 119:152 (ASV)

Concerning your testimonies, I have known of old
Or, "from your testimonies, I have known of old" ^F4 : by carefully reading the Scriptures which testify of God, his mind and will, and frequently meditating on them, he had learned a long time ago, even from his youth, what follows,

that you have founded them for ever ;
that the things contained in them are sure and certain, established and eternal truths; the moral law and the precepts of it are eternal, and of perpetual obligation; not one jot or tittle of them shall ever fail; the Gospel, and the truths of it, are everlasting, and shall ever remain; in spite of all the opposition, craft and cunning, fury and force of men, to undermine and root them out; see (Psalms 119:89) .
