Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Psalms 99:1

PSALM 99HOLY; HOLY; HOLY; IS THE LORD OF HOSTS (Isaiah 6:3)"This Psalm falls into three parts: (1) Psalms 99:1-3; (2) Psalms 99:4-5; and (3) Psalms 99:6-9, each concluded with a declaration of God's holiness. It is an echo of the Trisagion of the seraphim (Isaiah 6:3)."[1] In the light of this discerning remark by Delitzsch, we have chosen the above title for Psalms 99."The Trisagion is the name of a hymn, probably of Hebrew origin, that is in the liturgy of the Greek and Oriental churches,... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Psalms 99:4

"The king's strength also loveth justice;Thou dost establish equity;Thou executist justice and righteousness in Jacob,Exalt ye Jehovah our God,And worship at his footstool:Holy is he.""The king's strength loveth justice" (Psalms 99:4).

Thomas Coke

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Psalms 99:1

Psalms 99:0. The prophets setting forth the kingdom of God in Zion, exhorteth all, by the example of their forefathers, to worship God at his holy hill. This psalm also is attributed to David by the LXX, and most other ancient versions. It seems to relate to his quiet establishment on his throne. The Syriac title tells us, that it treats primarily of the slaughter of the Midianites, and that in its secondary sense it is a prediction of the glory of Christ's kingdom. Psalms 99:1. Let the people... read more
