诗篇 89:6-7 CUVS

Expositor's Bible Commentary - Psalms 89:1-52

Psalms 89:1-52THE foundation of this psalm is the promise in 2 Samuel 7:1-29 which guaranteed the perpetuity of the Davidic kingdom. Many of the characteristic phrases of the prophecy recur here-e.g., the promises that the children of wickedness shall not afflict, and that the transgressions of David’s descendants should be followed by chastisement only, not by rejection. The contents of Nathan’s oracle are first given in brief in Psalms 89:3-4 -" like a text," as Hupfeld says-and again in... read more

Arno Gaebelein's Annotated Bible - Psalms 89:1-52

Psalms 89:0 God’s Faithfulness: His Oath-bound Covenant with David 1. Jehovah’s faithfulness (Psalms 89:1-18 ) 2. His covenant with David (Psalms 89:19-37 ) 3. The ruin and desolation (Psalms 89:38-45 ) 4. How long, Lord? Remember! (Psalms 89:46-52 ) A Maschil of Ethan, a Merarite (1 Chronicles 6:44 ; 1 Chronicles 15:17 ). The greater part of this Psalm extols Jehovah’s lovingkindness and faithfulness and makes prominent the covenant with David. We must of course look beyond David and... read more

Geneva Study Bible - Psalms 89:7

89:7 God is greatly to be feared in the assembly of the {h} saints, and to be had in reverence of all [them that are] about him.(h) If the angels tremble before God’s majesty and infinite justice, what earthly creature by oppressing the Church dares to set himself against God? read more

James Gray

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Psalms 89:1-52

The first psalm in this lesson suggests Psalms 74:0 on which we did not dwell, but both of which depict the desolations of Judah by the Babylonians (compare Jeremiah 52:12-14 ). On this supposition their date would be that of the captivity, and their author a later Asaph than the Asaph mentioned in David’s time. Psalms 80:0 Has captivity features also. Some would say it relates to the ten tribes, as the preceding psalm does to Judah. The next several psalms are much alike in this respect and... read more

Robert Hawker

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Psalms 89:6-14

These verses contain a blessed hymn of praise. Jehovah's name, and his perfections, are gratefully celebrated. His sovereignty, grace, power, love, and goodness, are beautifully set forth, and most thankfully acknowledged. The destruction of Israel's enemies, in the ruin of Rahab (meaning Pharaoh) is particularly mentioned with praise. And as this was typical of Christ's victory over Satan and all the enemies of the church, so believers find great consolation in the assured interest they have... read more

Fall. Hebrew, "it is cut down and dries." The heat of the climate caused the flowers to decay ver soon, Isaias xl. 6. Man's youth touches on old age. (Calmet) --- The present moment is all we can call our own. (Berthier) --- "A young man may die soon: an old man cannot live long," says an English proverb. (Worthington) read more

Matthew Henry

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 89:5-14

5-14 The more God's works are known, the more they are admired. And to praise the Lord, is to acknowledge him to be such a one that there is none like him. Surely then we should feel and express reverence when we worship God. But how little of this appears in our congregations, and how much cause have we to humble ourselves on this account! That almighty power which smote Egypt, will scatter the enemies of the church, while all who trust in God's mercy will rejoice in his name; for mercy and... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Psalms 89:1-18

Of the Messiah and His Kingdom. Maschil, a didactic poem, of Ethan, the Ezrahite, a descendant of Zerah, of the tribe of Judah, 1 Chronicles 2:6; 1 Kings 4:31. He belonged to a great family, or guild, of singers, some of whom, at least, seem to have been trained in the schools of prophets. The psalm clearly substantiates the Messianic character of 2 Samuel 7:12-Joel :. The Promise Made to David v. 1. I will sing of the mercies of the Lord forever, the poet immediately launching forth into... read more
