Commentaries:
Adam Clarke
The light of the righteous rejoiceth - They shall have that measure of prosperity which shall be best for them; but the wicked, howsoever prosperous for a time, shall be brought into desolation. Light and lamp in both cases may signify posterity. The righteous shall have a joyous posterity; but that of the wicked shall be cut off. So I Kings 11:36 : "And unto his son will I give one tribe, that David my servant may have a light ( ner , a lamp) always before me." I Kings 15:4 : "Nevertheless for David' s sake did the Lord give them a lamp, to set up his son after him." See also Psalms 132:17, and several other places.
