Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Psalms 96:1-9

These verses will be best expounded by pious and devout affections working in our souls towards God, with a high veneration for his majesty and transcendent excellency. The call here given us to praise God is very lively, the expressions are raised and repeated, to all which the echo of a thankful heart should make agreeable returns. I. We are here required to honour God, 1. With songs, Ps. 96:1, 2. Three times we are here called to sing unto the Lord; sing to the Father, to the Son, to the... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Psalms 96:1

O sing unto the Lord a new song ,.... A famous excellent one, suited to Gospel times, on account of the new benefit and blessing of redemption and salvation lately obtained by the Messiah; which should be sung to him, who is the Lord or Jehovah here designed, by all the redeemed ones, Revelation 5:9 ; see Gill on Psalm 33:3 , the Targum adds, "sing, ye angels on high:' sing unto the Lord all the earth : not the whole land of Israel only, as Aben Ezra interprets it; though here the... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Psalms 96:2

Sing unto the Lord ,.... Which is repeated to show the vehemency of the speaker, and the importance of the work exhorted to: this being the third time that the word Lord or Jehovah is mentioned, have led some to think of the trinity of Persons, Father, Son, and Spirit, the one only Jehovah, to whom the new song of salvation is to be sung, because of their joyful concern in it; the Father has contrived it, the Son has effected it, and the Spirit applies it: bless his name : speak well of... read more

John Gill

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Psalms 96:3

Declare his glory among the Heathen ,.... What a glorious Person the Messiah is; the brightness of his Father's glory; having all the perfections of deity in him; how the glory of God appears in him, and in all that he has done; and especially in the work of redemption, in which the glory of divine wisdom, power, justice, truth, and faithfulness, love, grace, and mercy, is richly displayed; say what glory he is advanced unto, having done his work, being highly exalted, set at the right hand... read more

Adam Clarke

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 96:1

Sing unto the Lord a new song - A song of peculiar excellence, for in this sense the term new is repeatedly taken in the Scriptures. He has done extraordinary things for us, and we should excel in praise and thanksgiving. read more

Adam Clarke

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 96:2

Show forth his salvation from day to day - The original is very emphatic, ישועתו ליום מיום בשרו basseru miyom leyom yeshuatho "Preach the Gospel of his salvation from day to day." To the same effect the Septuagint, Ευαγγελιζεσθε ἡμεραν εξ ἡμερας το σωτηριον αυτου , "Evangelize his salvation from day to day." read more

Adam Clarke

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 96:3

Declare his glory among the heathen - The heathen do not know the true God: as his being and attributes are at the foundation of all religion, these are the first subjects of instruction for the Gentile world. Declare, ספרו sapperu , detail, number out his glory, כבודו kebodo , his splendor and excellence. His wonders among all people - Declare also to the Jews his wonders, נפלאותיו niphleothaiv , his miracles. Dwell on the works which he shall perform in Judea. The miracles... read more

John Calvin

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 96:1

Verse 1 1Sing unto Jehovah a new song This commencement shows that, as I have already observed, the Psalmist is exhorting the whole world, and not the Israelites merely, to the exercise of devotion. Nor could this be done, unless the gospel were universally diffused as the means of conveying the knowledge of God. The saying of Paul must necessarily hold true, “How shall they call upon him in whom they have not believed?” (Romans 10:14.) The same Apostle proves the calling of the Gentiles, by... read more

John Calvin

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 96:3

Verse 3 3Declare his glory among the heathen Additional terms are adduced to commend the salvation spoken of. It is called his glory and his wonders; which is equivalent to saying that it was glorious and admirable. By such titles the Psalmist would distinguish it from any deliverances which had formerly been granted, as indeed there can be but one opinion, that when God appeared as Redeemer of all the world, he gave a display of his mercy and of his favor, such as he never vouchsafed before.... read more

Spence, H. D. M., etc.

The Pulpit Commentary - Psalms 96:1

O sing unto the Lord a new song (comp. Psalms 33:3 ; Psalms 98:1 ; Psalms 144:9 ; Psalms 149:1 ; Isaiah 42:10 ). This clause does not occur in 1 Chronicles 16:1-43 . It seems to belong to the second recension of the psalm, when it was recast to suit some "new" occasion. Sing unto the Lord, all the earth. So in Isaiah 42:10 , "Sing unto the Lord a new song, his praise from the end of the earth. " The psalmist at once makes known his "universalism" by calling on the whole... read more
