Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Psalms 47:1

(1) Of triumph.—Or, of exultation, as LXX. and Vulg. For the hand-clapping at a time of national rejoicing, such as the coronation of a king, see 2 Kings 11:12 (comp. Psalms 98:8); and for the “shout,” comp. Numbers 23:21, “the shout of a king”; and 1 Samuel 10:24. With the Hebrews, as with our own English forefathers, this sign of popular assent,“In full acclaim,A people’s voice,The proof and echo of all human fame,”played a large and important part. read more

William Nicoll

Expositor's Bible Commentary - Psalms 47:1-9

Psalms 47:1-9THE closing thought of Psalms 46:1-11 is nobly expanded in this jubilant summons to all nations to praise Jehovah as their King. Both psalms have a similar, and probably the same, historical basis: a Divine act so recent that the tumult of triumph has not yet subsided, and the waves of joy still run high. Only in Psalms 46:1-11 the effect of that God-wrought deliverance is principally regarded as the security and peace of Israel, and in this psalm as the drawing of the nations to... read more

Arno Gaebelein's Annotated Bible - Psalms 47:1-9

Psalms 47:0 He is King Over All the Earth 1. In the midst of His people (Psalms 47:1-5 ) 2. The praise of His delivered people (Psalms 47:6-9 ) And now we see prophetically how the redeemed people clap their hands and shout unto God with the voice of triumph, for Messiah is King and then they sing praises unto the King, for He is King over all the earth and highly exalted. Every knee must bow and every tongue confess. read more

James Gray

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Psalms 47:1-9

Psalms 38:0 An appeal to God from chastisement because of iniquity (Psalms 38:1-4 ). The mental anguish is described in figures of physical disease, and yet it is not impossible that such disease may have been part of the chastisement (Psalms 38:5-8 ). The desertion of friends and the opposition of enemies also entered into it (Psalms 38:10-17 ). There are verses susceptible of an application to Christ, but others would prevent its application as a whole to him. Psalms 40:0 Messianic (compare... read more

Robert Hawker

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Psalms 47:1

CONTENTS In this Psalm the prophet seems to have an eye to the bringing up the ark of God to Zion. But as the ark itself was well understood by the faithful to be a type of the Messiah, surely we may conclude that the one great object of this Psalm which engaged the prophet's mind and pen, was to point to the ascension of the Lord Jesus. And in this point of view it is a beautiful prophecy of a glorious event. To time chief Musician. A Psalm for the sons of Korah read more

Robert Hawker

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Psalms 47:1-2

Here is a call from one awakened soul to another, nay, to all the people of God, to all the church of the Gentiles also, yet to be called to rejoice in Christ's salvation. The clapping of the hands implies perhaps not merely an outward token of inward delight; but it means let every demonstration be given, both by soul and body, of what a glorious cause for holy triumph there is in the consciousness of our risen, ascended, and triumphant Saviour. read more

George Haydock's Catholic Bible Commentary - Psalms 47:1

On the, &c., is not in Hebrew nor Eusebius, &c. It means Sunday, (St. Ambrose; Worthington) or rather Monday, being sung on that day. (St. Jerome, &c.) (Haydock) --- The subject of the former canticle is continued, in thanksgiving to God, for some signal victory, or for the peace which God afforded to his people, after the death of Cambyses. (Calmet) --- The Fathers explain it of the propagation and peace of the Church. (Haydock) read more

Matthew Henry

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 47:1-4

1-4 The God with whom we have to do, is a God of awful majesty. The universal and absolute sovereignty of a holy God would be too terrible for us even to think of, were it not exercised by his Son from a mercy-seat; but now it is only terrible to the workers of iniquity. While his people express confidence and joy, and animate each other in serving him, let sinners submit to his authority, and accept his salvation. Jesus Christ shall subdue the Gentiles; he shall bring them as sheep into the... read more
