"The psalmist saw that the wicked were "not in trouble as other men;" he saw that they had more than heart could wish; and he became envious when he saw the prosperity of the wicked.
He saw that God does not propose to reward either the good or the bad in this life.
*But there is this difference between the wealthy sinner and the poor servant of God: There is no promise made to the transgressor of God's law.
God allows the sun to shine, and the rain to fall, alike on the just and unjust."
E.J.Waggoner
But when he went into the sanctuary of God,
and understood their end (Ps. 73:17), then his envy ceased.
*But there is this difference between the wealthy sinner and the poor servant of God: There is no promise made to the transgressor of God's law.
God allows the sun to shine, and the rain to fall, alike on the just and unjust."
