Beseeching G-d, “Support me as per your word,” for it is life itself that is at stake, King David implores, as he fears debilitating dashed hopes. Varying Torah-true interpretations of these heartfelt pleas are presented – a fascinating perspective on what really counts vividly emerge! The classic commentaries may differ as to how uniquely reflective of King David’s own reality these prayers were, but everyone can agree that they serve to uplift and inspire. Hoping that G-d sustains him, the concluding cord struck emphasizes how deeply he cherished the Torah! (Psalm 119, verses 116-117)
