Psalms 119:130

The entrance of thy words giveth light -The Septuagint translates this, “the manifestation (or declaration) -ἡ δήλωσιςhēdēlōsis- of thy words enlightens.” So the Vulgate. Luther renders it, “When thy word is revealed, so it delivers us, and makes the simple wise.” DeWette, “The opening (revelation) of thy word,” etc. The Hebrew word -פתחpethach- means an “opening” or “entrance” - as of a gate,Joshua 20:4;Judges 9:35; and then “a door,” as of a tent or the temple,Gen 18:1;1 Kings 6:8; or the gate of a city,Isaiah 3:26; and then it means opening, insight, instruction.
