시편 2:7-11 KRV

The Pulpit Commentary - Psalms 2:7

I will declare the decree . It is best to suppose that Messiah here takes the word, and maintains it to the end of Psalms 2:9 , when the psalmist resumes in his own person. Messiah "declares," or publishes, a "decree," made by God the Father in the beginning of all things, and communicated by him to the Son, whereby he made known the relationship between them, and invested the Son with sovereign power over the universe. The Lord hath said unto me ; rather, said unto me (see the Revised... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Psalms 2:8

Ask of me, and I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance. A very small part of the heathen were the inheritance of David, and therefore the Messiah only can be spoken of in this verse. Before Messiah "all kings" were to "fall down; all nations to do him service" ( Psalms 72:11 ; comp. Isaiah 49:22 ; Isaiah 60:3 , Isaiah 60:4 ; Matthew 28:19 , etc.). And the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession (comp. Isaiah 52:10 ; Jeremiah 16:19 ; Micah 5:4 ; ... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Psalms 2:8

The kingdom and glory of Christ. "Ask," etc. We have the highest authority for regarding this psalm as a prophecy of the kingdom and glory of Christ. Interpreters labour in vain to fix on some occasion in Israel's history to account for its composition. No adequate explanation can be imagined of its scope and language but that given in Acts 4:25 (comp. Acts 13:33 ; Hebrews 1:5 ). Acts 4:10-12 would be blasphemous arrogance if spoken by and of a mere earthly king. Here is a... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Psalms 2:9

Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron . It is said that these words, and those of the next clause, "cannot describe the mild rule of Christ" (Rosenmuller, Do Wette, Hupfeld, etc.). But the objectors forget that there is a severe, as well as a mild, side to the dealings of God with his human creatures. St. Paul notes in the same verse both the "severity" and the "goodness" of God ( Romans 11:22 ). Christ, though "the Prince of Peace," "came to send a sword upon the earth" ( Matthew... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Psalms 2:10

Be wise now therefore, O ye kings . The remainder of the psalm contains the advice of the psalmist to the rebels of Psalms 2:1-3 , and to all who may be inclined to imitate them. "Be wise," he says," be prudent. For your own sakes desist from attempts at rebellion. Jehovah and Messiah are irresistible. Ye will find it "hard to kick against the pricks.'" Be instructed, ye judges of the earth. "Be taught," i.e; "by experience, if ye are not wise enough to know beforehand, that opposition... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Psalms 2:11

Serve the Lord with fear . "If ye will not serve him ( i.e. honour and obey him) from love, do it from fear;" "The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom" ( Psalms 111:10 ). And rejoice. Do not be content with fear. Go on from fear to love, and so to joy. Good men "rejoice in God alway" ( Philippians 4:4 ). But such rejoicing must be with trembling; or, with reverence (Prayer-book Version), since no service is acceptable to God but such as is rendered "with reverence and godly... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Psalms 2:7

I will declare the decree - We have here another change in the speaker. The Anointed One is himself introduced as declaring the great purpose which was formed in regard to him, and referring to the promise which was made to him, as the foundation of the purpose of Yahweh Psalms 2:6 to set him on the hill of Zion. The first strophe or stanza Psalms 2:1-3 is closed with a statement made by the rebels of their intention or design; the second Psalms 2:4-6 with a statement of the purpose of Yahweh;... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Psalms 2:8

Ask of me - That is, of God. This is a part of the “decree” or purpose, as mentioned in Psalms 2:7. That decree embraced not only the design to constitute him as his Son, in the sense that he was to be king in Zion, but also the purpose to give him a dominion embracing “the heathen” and “the uttermost parts of the earth.” This wide dominion was to be given him on condition that he would “ask” for it, thus keeping up the idea that Yahweh, as such, is the great source of authority and empire, and... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Psalms 2:9

Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron - That is, evidently, thine enemies, for it cannot be supposed to be meant that he would sway such a scepter over his own people. The idea is that he would crush and subdue all his foes. He would have absolute power, and the grant which had been made to him would be accompanied with authority sufficient to hold it. That dominion which was to be conceded to him would be not only one of protection to his friends, but also of punishment on his enemies; and... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Psalms 2:10

Be wise now, therefore, O ye kings - This is to be understood as the language of the psalmist. See introduction to the psalm, Section 3. It is an exhortation addressed to the rulers and princes whom the psalmist saw engaged in opposition to the purpose of Yahweh Psalms 2:1-3 - and hence, to all rulers and princes - to act the part of wisdom, by not attempting to resist the plans of God, but to submit to him, and secure his friendship. The psalmist cautions them to take warning, in view of what... read more
