* '''יִרְאַת יְהוָה''': Fearing YHWH is t … </br>* '''יִרְאַת יְהוָה''': Fearing YHWH is the essence of covenant obedience (cf. Deut 10:12-13; cf. the reference to the faithful as יראי יהוה %5Be.g., Ps 118%5D). Thus, "the fear of YHWH" is used here as a metonymy for the requirements of the covenant—"the religion commanded by Yahweh, a synonym for his תורה" (Eaton 1968, 605). The phrase "fear of YHWH" refers to the fear which people experience because of YHWH (an objective genitive). Hence, "fear of YHWH" %3D "fearing YHWH." </br>* The waw phrases in v. 11 ("gold and much pure gold... honey and virgin honey from the honeycomb") indicate addition: "they are better than gold and %5Bthey are even better than%5D much pure gold..." In English, the waw is better translated as "even." So e.g., ESV: "More to be desired are they than gold, even much fine gold..." (so NLT, NET; cf. KJV "yea"; cf. NIV: "than gold, than much pure gold").</br>* On the definite article of '''הַנֶּחֱמָדִים''', see %5Bhttps://psalms.scriptura.org/w/Psalm_19_Grammar#vv._10-11 the note in the Grammar layer%5D.</br>vv._10-11 the note in the Grammar layer%5D.
