Psalms 100:3-5. Know that the Lord Hebrews Jehovah, he is God The only living and true God; a being infinitely perfect, self-existent, and self- sufficient; and the fountain of all being; the first cause and last end of all things. It is he that hath made us Not only by creation, but by regeneration, which is also called a creation, because by it we are made his people. Hence we owe him homage and service, and him only. and not other gods, who did neither make nor new-make us. He, and... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Psalms 100:1-5

Psalms 97-100 God the universal kingPsalms 97:0 follows on from the thought on which the previous psalm closed (namely, that God is king over the earth). It shows that holiness, righteousness and justice are the basis of God’s kingdom. His judgment will be as universal as a flash of lightning and as powerful as an all-consuming fire (97:1-5). Every thing will bow before his rule (6-7). His own people already recognize him as Lord and bring him fitting worship (8-9). They can experience the... read more

God. Hebrew. Elohim. App-4 . The Hebrew accent places the chief pause on "God"; the minor pauses on "know" and "made": i.e. the knowledge of Jehovah as our God reveals to His People that He made them such, and that they are His "sheep" and His care. and not we ourselves. Some codices, with six early printed editions, read l'o ("not"); but other codices, with one early printed edition, Aramaean, read lo (for Him or His), "and His we are", as in Authorized Version margin The difference... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Psalms 100:1

PSALM 100ALL PEOPLE THAT ON EARTH DO DWELL;"THE OLD HUNDREDTH"This Psalm was reduced to poetry by William Kethe and was included in the Geneva Psalter. The music by Louis Bourgeois is that usually sung in "The Doxology," and it is one of the most popular hymns ever written. Many of the commentators have mentioned this. We believe that Kethe's poetical rendition is an acceptable commentary on the five verses of this psalm, and we are including it here:<SIZE=2>ALL PEOPLE THAT ON EARTH DO... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Psalms 100:2

"Serve Jehovah with gladness:Come before his presence with singing.Know ye that Jehovah, he is God:It is he that hath made us, and we are his;We are his people, and the sheep of his pasture.""No more appropriate words for the call to worship were ever written. An alternative reading for "and we are his" (Psalms 100:2), is, "and not we ourselves." This meaning is reflected in the second line of the second stanza of Kethe's poem, "Without our aid he did us make." The thought is accurate, whether... read more
