This verse and the ones that follow (Psalm 132:8–10 and Proverbs 4:2) can also serve to refer to our own inner journey: we are accompanied now by Torah. Only the first and last verse are recited in all rites; the others were added in many communities in the late Middle Ages."

On the one hand, we may feel satisfaction that we have been instructed through the Torah service, that we have read its teaching and engaged with it; on the other hand, we may feel that we have not had enough, that a friend is leaving us, as if returning home after having spent just an hour with us. Perhaps that is why so many of the verses chosen for this moment are those of longing—longing for redemption, longing for a time gone by. Equally, there is the knowledge that the Torah is a scroll, that there are chapters now hidden that have yet to be unrolled. What we have glimpsed is only a partial view of the Teaching; more is yet to be revealed."
