2b) Psa 84:12, O Lord of hosts, Blessed is the man who trusts in You! {p}

I discovered something interesting about the 1B pair (vs. 3-7). First of all, what does it mean, “in whose heart are the highways”? I think it is being used in the same context as in Proverbs:

The way of the lazy man is like a hedge of thorns, But the way of the upright is a highway. Pro 15:19

The highway of the upright is to depart from evil; He who keeps his way preserves his soul. Pro 16:17

The way of the upright is a highway of righteousness, the way of walking and living out your daily life in accordance with the paths and ways of the Lord. So, he in whose heart are the highways, is he who has internalized the righteous paths and ways of the Lord, and lives accordingly. (Anyone can learn the Lord’s paths and ways — He describes them in Torah, His revealed reference of righteous and wicked acts.)

This man, for whom the Lord is his strength, and in whose heart are the highways of the upright, when he passes through the Valley of Baca, he makes it a place of springs. The Valley of Baca means in Hebrew, “the valley of weeping.” Instead of the water coming from the rivers of tears from the sorrow of the people, the water now comes, like rivers of living water, from the goodness and blessing of the Lord upon the people, when a man in whose heart are the highways brings justice, alleviates suffering, supplies the poor and needy with bread, and, just as our Messiah Yeshua, goes about doing good, and healing all the oppressions of the devil. This is the fruit of Torah lived out in a life, for it is the Law of Love.
