From the Scholars: Barnes' Notes

Thy word is true from the beginning -literally, “The head of thy word is truth.” Probably the meaning is, that the “principles” of God’s word were truth, or were based on truth. The main thing - that on which all relied - was truth, absolute truth. It was not “made” truth by the mere will of God, but it was “founded on” essential truth. ComparePsalms 119:142, note;Psalms 119:144, note. Margin, “The beginning of thy word is true.” Its origin is truth; its foundation is truth; its essential nature is truth. SeePsalms 19:9.
