Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Psalms 67:1-7
Psalms 67This is another song that exhorts the nations to praise God that an unknown psalmist penned. Its theme is similar to that of Psalms 66."If a psalm was ever written round the promises to Abraham, that he would be both blessed and made a blessing, it could well have been such as this. The song begins at home, and returns to pause there a moment before the end; but its thought always flies to the distant peoples and to what awaits them when the blessing that has reached ’us’ reaches all."... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Psalms 67:3-4
God’s people should praise Him because He rules justly. Because He does rule justly all nations should look to Him for guidance."The capricious kindliness which makes no moral judgments is as alien to biblical thought as the tyranny that rules without love." [Note: Kidner, p. 237.] read more

John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 67:1-7
This short and joyful Ps. is in the first place a harvest thanksgiving (Psalms 67:6), perhaps at the Feast of Tabernacles. God’s goodness to Israel reveals Him also to the nations (Psalms 67:2), and calls forth their praise (Psalms 67:3, Psalms 67:5), their submission (Psalms 67:4), and their worship (Psalms 67:7). There is a symmetrical parallelism on either side of the middle verse, Psalms 67:5 corresponding to Psalms 67:3, and Psalms 67:6-7 to Psalms 67:1, Psalms 67:2.1. This v. is partly... read more

Psalms 67:1-2 I. There is strong connexion between health and happiness between the shining of the heart and the soundness of the body. The connexion is more seen in the prevention than in the cure of disease. When an illness has actually mastered us it is usually vain to say, 'Keep up your spirits'. The tendency of illness is to keep down the spirits. This is suggested in the book of Job. Why does the Satan of the drama, after overwhelming Job by poverty and bereavement, ask leave to afflict... read more

Expositor's Bible Commentary - Psalms 67:1-7
Psalms 67:1-7THIS little psalm condenses the dominant thought of the two preceding into a series of aspirations after Israel’s blessing, and the consequent diffusion of the knowledge of God’s way among all lands. Like Psalms 65:1-13, it sees in abundant harvests a type and witness of God’s kindness. But, whereas in Psalms 65:1-13 the fields were covered with corn, here the increase has been gathered in. The two psalms may or may not be connected in date of composition as closely as these two... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Psalms 67:1-7
Psalms 66-67 God and the nationsIt appears that in Psalms 66:0 the people join in singing the first part of the song, and that the king sings the latter part alone. The song opens with a call to people worldwide to sing praise to God for a notable victory he has just won for Israel (66:1-4). Centuries earlier God brought Israel out of Egypt and led the people through the Red Sea, and the same God still rules in the affairs of nations (5-9). The worshippers acknowledge that in allowing them... read more
