Watching my son at swimming lessons this morning I took the time to read Psalm 3 on my PDA using the New Living Translation. It has Matthew Henry's commentary on it as well.
So here I am, reading two texts, one from thousands of years ago, and one published in 1706.
It struck me, I wonder if David the Psalmist, and Matthew the Clergyman would ever have thought their work would be digested many years later, by someone with a mult-purpose electronic device, while relaxing by a pool?
Both texts spoke to me, about various things, and how blessed are we to have such insights available to us at the touch of a stylus!!
"Victory comes from you, O Lord. May you bless your people."

And then add a tagged Greek or Hebrew text - it's amazing... and makes you look really smart (or a show off, I haven't figured out which yet).
