Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerses 23-36. - The grandeur and unusual comprehensiveness of the adoration and homage here proclaimed, as to be offered to the omnipotent Ruler of all nations, should be well pondered. Our eye and ear may have become too familiar with it, but when put a little into relief, and referred to its original time of day, it is fit to be ranked among the strongest moral evidences of inspiration in the word and the speaker. Verse 23. - This verse is composed of the latter half of each of the first two verses of the psalm (96.).

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(23-33) See Psalms 96. This psalm, in the Psalter, consists of five strophes or stanzas of six lines each--an artistic arrangement which has been violated here. The subject is the extension of Jehovah's kingdom over all the world, a thought familiar to the readers of the Book of Isaiah, where most of the ideas and phrases of the psalm may be found.(23) Sing unto the Lord, all the earth.--The second line of the psalm. The spirited opening of the psalm is purposely weakened, by omission of the first and third lines, in order to make it fit in here. Strophe I. is thus compressed into four lines (1Chronicles 16:23-24).All the earth.--All the land (of Israel).Shew forth.--Heb., tell the (good) news of.His salvation.--Deliverance (from exile).(24) Heathen.--Nations (1Chronicles 16:31).(25-27) Strophe II. of the psalm. Jehovah is the Creator; other gods are nonentities.(25) He also.--And he. The conjunction is not in Psalms 96, and is a prosaic addition of the compiler. (Comp. 1Chronicles 16:20.) . . .
