Let them be before the Lord continually, etc.] And not cast behind his back, or into the depths of the sea, never to be seen more, as sins are when forgiven; but be always in sight, as loathsome and abominable, and causing those that committed them to be abhorred for them; and be before him, as a Judge, to examine them, the nature and kind of them, and to condemn and punish for them; (see <022005>Exodus 20:5). The Targum is, “let them be before the Word of the Lord always;” (see <580413>Hebrews 4:13). That he may cut off the memory of them from the earth; so that they may not be remembered with any applause, or their name spoken of with any commendation; (see <181817>Job 18:17).
