Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 2. - Day unto day uttereth speech; literally, poureth out speech, as water is poured from a fountain. Each day bears its testimony to the next, and so the stream goes on in a flow that is never broken. And night unto night showeth knowledge. Dr. Kay compares St. Paul's statement, that "that which may be known of God" is manifested to man through the creation (Romans 1:19, 20). A certain superiority seems to be assigned to the night, "as though the contemplation of the starry firmament awakened deeper, more spiritual, thoughts than the brightness of day."

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(2) Uttereth.--Literally, ours out, or makes to well up, like a fountain, undoubtedly in reference to the light streaming forth.Sheweth.--Literally, breathes out; perhaps with reference to the cool evening breeze, so welcome in the East. (See Song of Solomon 2:17, Note.) Notice that it is not here the heavens that are telling (as in Psalm 19:1) the tale of God's glory to man, or "to the listening earth," as in Addison's well- known hymn, but day tells its successor day, and night whispers to night, so handing on, as if from parent to son, the great news.
