Pulpit Commentary
Pulpit CommentaryVerse 26. - Bless ye God in the congregations, even the Lord, from the fountain of Israel. This is probably the refrain of the hymn sung (comp. Exodus 15:21; 2 Chronicles 5:13; Ezra 3:11). By "the fountain of Israel" is no doubt meant the sanctuary on Mount Zion - "the ever-living fountain of praise" (Kay).
Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(26) Bless ye.--Apparently these words are part of the processional hymn. But in Judges 5:9 a similar outburst of praise appears to come from the poet.From the fountain of Israel.--A comparison with Isaiah 48:1; Isaiah 51:1, certainly allows us to understand this in the congregations sprung from the head waters (as we say) of the races, i.e., the patriarchal ancestors. At the same time if there were any mode of taking the words literally instead of figuratively it would be preferable.
