Psalms 53:3

“Every one of them is gone back, etc.] From God, and the way of his commandments. In (<191403>Psalm 14:3), it is, “they are all gone aside”; (see Gill on “<191403>Psalm 14:3”); they are altogether become filthy; [there is] none that doeth good, no, not one. What follows in this verse is the same as (<191403>Psalm 14:3).”

“Every one of them is gone back - See the notes at Psalms 14:3. The only variation here in the two psalms is in the substitution of the word - סג sâg, for סור sûr - words almost identical in form and in sense. The only difference in meaning is, that the former word - the word used here - means “to draw back,” or “to go back;” the other, the word used in Psalms 14:1-7, means “to go off, to turn aside.” Each of them indicates a departure from God; a departure equally fatal and equally guilty, whether people turn “back” from following him, or turn “aside” to something else. Both of these forms of apostasy occur with lamentable frequency. return to 'Top of Page'”

“Every: Psa 14:3; Sa2 20:2; Isa 53:6, Isa 64:6; Jer 8:5, Jer 8:6; Zep 1:6 filthy: Job 15:16; Eze 36:25; Co2 7:1; Rev 22:11 none: Rom 3:12; Jo1 2:29; Jo3 1:11 Psalms 53:4”

“Instead of הכּל, the totality, we have כּלּו, which denotes each individual of the whole, to which the suffix, that has almost vanished ( Psa 29:9) from the genius of the language, refers. And instead of סר, the more elegant סג, without any distinction in the meaning. Psalms 53:4”
