John Gill Commentary Psalms 119:156

"Great are thy tender mercies, O Jehovah: Quicken me according to thine ordinances." — Psalms 119:156 (ASV)

Great [are] your tender mercies, O Lord
Not his providential mercies only, which are many and undeserved, and constantly repeated; but his special mercies in Christ, which flow from the tenderness of his heart; and his merciful lovingkindness to his people, and which are great or many ^F6 , as to quantity; there being a multitude of them, not to be reckoned up: and for quality they are wonderful beyond expression and conception; proceed from unmerited love, rich, free, sovereign grace, and last for ever;

quicken me according to that judgments; (See Gill on Psalms 119:149).
