诗篇 135:8-11 CUNPSS

The Pulpit Commentary - Psalms 135:1-21

The march of mercy. This psalm traces the progress of God's mercy to his people from its source in the Divine nature on to its complete fulfillment in their loving, glad allegiance, the expression of which begins and ends the psalm. I. IT BEGINS IN THE INHERENT NATURE OF GOD HIMSELF . ( Psalms 135:3 .) "The Lord is good." From this proceeds all the rest, and in this all that follows finds its explanation. That "God is love" is, after all, the key which fits the... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Psalms 135:1-21

God's praises. "An exhortation to the priests and Levites who wait in the sanctuary to praise Jehovah, both because of his goodness in choosing Israel to be his people, and because of his greatness, and the almighty power which he has shown, in his dominion over the world of nature, and in the overthrow of all the enemies of his people. Then his abiding majesty is contrasted with the nothingness of the idols of the heathen." I. THE GENERAL GROUNDS OF THE PRAISE OF GOD .... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Psalms 135:10

The Lord is a Man of war. 1. So thoroughly has Christianity filled the modern mind with the love of peace, that the older associations of Jehovah with times and scenes of war have become positively painful to us. Taking advantage of this feeling—perhaps we should say this weakness of feeling—the infidel makes easy attacks upon the Old Testament Jehovah as an altogether unlovely and even bloodthirsty conception. Are we to be unduly alarmed, and to attempt explanations and excuses? or are... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Psalms 135:8

Who smote the firstborn of Egypt - As the last and the greatest of the plagues brought upon the Egyptians; the chief and crowning judgment under which they were made willing that the children of Israel should go, and which was in fact the judgment which secured their freedom. This is selected here evidently for this reason, instead of recounting all the plagues which were brought upon the Egyptians.Both of man and beast - Exodus 11:5. Margin, as in Hebrew, From man unto beast. That is,... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Psalms 135:9

Who sent tokens and wonders - Tokens: that is, signs or evidences of the divine power. Wonders: things suited to impress the mind with awe; things outside of the ordinary course of events; things not produced by natural laws, but by the direct power of God. The allusion here is, of course, to the plagues of Egypt, as recorded in Exodus. See the notes at Psalms 105:27-36. read more
