The Soul's True Home
Commentators explain that to "dwell at ease" is not primarily about material comfort but a deep spiritual peace. It's the security of a soul that is "at home" in God's care. As Matthew Henry notes, even when the body is sick, the soul can be at ease in God. This inner tranquility, found in Christ, provides a profound sense of safety and contentment that transcends worldly circumstances.
