תהילים קיט:עא פירוש: רש״י

It is good for me that I was afflicted That I was chastised and afflicted in order that I repent of the evil way and keep Your statutes. In other commentaries I found the following: It is good for me that I was afflicted, etc. It appeared good to me when I suffered privations in order to learn Your statutes, when I learned the Torah in pain.
