106:6 We have {d} sinned with our fathers, we have committed iniquity, we have done wickedly.
(d) By earnest confession of their sins and of their father's, they show that they hoped that God according to his promise would pity them.
106:6 Glory - As our fathers did.
106:6-12 Here begins a confession of sin; for we must acknowledge that the Lord has done right, and we have done wickedly. We are encouraged to hope that though justly corrected, yet we shall not be utterly forsaken. God's afflicted people own themselves guilty before him. God is distrusted because his favours are not remembered. If he did not save us for his own name's sake, and to the praise of his power and grace, we should all perish.
