Eccl. 2:18; cf. Psa. 39:6
cf. Mark 8:37
Or, an expiation.
In this age wealth and riches, which are mammon, represent all things other than Christ (Matt. 6:24). If we trust in such things, we will have no share in the enjoyment of God in Christ in His house, the church, or in His city, the kingdom.
Or, utterance.
Psalms 49—51 cover three categories of persons in relation to the enjoyment of God in Christ. The first category (Psa. 49) consists of those who trust in their wealth (i.e., in anything other than Christ). In the second category (Psa. 50) are those who call upon the Lord according to His covenant. The third category (Psa. 51) is a single person, King David, who repented, confessed his sins to God, and asked God for His purging. Those in the first category have no share in the enjoyment of God in Christ; those in the second category participate in the enjoyment of God; and the one in the third category has a full portion of the enjoyment of God in Christ.
