Works Augustine of Hippo (354-430) Enarrationes in psalmos (CCEL) Expositions on the Book of Psalms
Psalm XXIII.

6.

"And Thy mercy shall follow me all the days of my life:" that is, as long as I live in this mortal life, not Thine, but mine. "That I may dwell in the house of the Lord 1 for length of days" (ver. 6). Now Thy mercy shall follow me not here only, but also that I may dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.


  1. [He applies the figures of ver. 5 and here to the Lord's Table, the chrism (i.e., confirmation), and the Church in time and eternity.--C.] ↩
