Psalms — Chapter 14

DOMINE QUIS HABITABIT IN TABERNACULO TUO. Lapide: Psalm 14 — "Lord, who shall dwell in Thy tabernacle? Or who shall rest in Thy holy hill?" The conditions for dwelling with God: listed in vv.2-5. Lapide follows Augustine's commentary: the conditions (integrity of life, justice, truth of heart, no deceit, no evil, honor to the God-fearing, fidelity to oaths, no usury, no bribes) are the description of the just man. Christ is the ONE who perfectly fulfills all conditions; every Christian in proportion to their charity participates.
