What are God's Testimonies?
Commentators explain that God's "testimonies" refer to all of Scripture. John Gill notes they testify to God's character, his love, the work of Christ, and the path to salvation. Albert Barnes adds that every law from God is his solemn witness to what is wise, right, and good for humanity. Therefore, to "keep his testimonies" is to treasure and obey the whole counsel of God's Word.
