시편 150:1-3 KRV

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Psalms 150:1-6

We are here, with the greatest earnestness imaginable, excited to praise God; if, as some suppose, this psalm was primarily intended for the Levites, to stir them up to do their office in the house of the Lord, as singers and players on instruments, yet we must take it as speaking to us, who are made to our God spiritual priests. And the repeated inculcating of the call thus intimates that it is a great and necessary duty, a duty which we should be much employed and much enlarged in, but which... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Psalms 150:1

Praise ye the Lord ,.... Or, "hallelujah"; which, in the Targum, Septuagint, and Vulgate Latin versions, is the title of the psalm; and expresses the subject of it, the praise of the Lord; praise God in his sanctuary ; in the temple, the house of his sanctuary as the Targum and R Judah; or in heaven, as R. Moses, his holy place, where he is praised by holy angels and glorified saints; or in the church below, of which the sanctuary or temple was a type. The Septuagint, Vulgate Latin, and... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Psalms 150:2

Praise him for his mighty acts ,.... The creation of all things out of nothing; the sustaining of all beings; the government of the world; the redemption of man by Christ, and the wonderful works done by him on earth; the work of grace upon the hearts of his people, and the preservation of them in grace to glory; praise him according to his excellent greatness ; or, "according to the multitude of his greatness" F20 כרב גדלו "secundum multudinem magnitudinie ejus", V. L. Montanus,... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Psalms 150:3

Praise him with the sound of the trumpet ,.... Which was used in calling the assembly together, for worship and on other occasions; and at the feast of blowing of trumpets, and in the year of jubilee, Numbers 10:1 ; and by the priests in temple service, 1 Chronicles 16:6 ; and was typical of the Gospel, which gives a certain and joyful sound, and is the cause and means of praising God, Isaiah 27:13 ; praise him with the psaltery ; to which psalms were sung; and harp ; which... read more

Adam Clarke

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 150:2

For his mighty acts - Whether manifested in creation, government, mercy or justice. His excellent greatness - גדלו כרב kerob gudlo , according to the multitude of his magnitude, or of his majesty. After the manyfoldness of his mickleness - Anglo-Saxon. After the mykelnes of his greathede - Old Psalter. Let the praise be such as is becoming so great, so holy, and so glorious a Being. read more

Adam Clarke

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 150:3

The sound of the trumpet - שופר sophar , from its noble, cheering, and majestic sound; for the original has this ideal meaning. With the psaltery - נבל nebel ; the nabla, a hollow stringed instrument; perhaps like the guitar, or the old symphony. And harp - כנור kinnor , another stringed instrument, played on with the hands or fingers. read more

John Calvin

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 150:1

Verse 1 1.Praise God in his sanctuary. This psalm in general commends the spiritual worship of God, which consists in sacrifices of praise. By the sanctuary there is little doubt that heaven is here meant, as is often the case elsewhere. The second clause is exegetical, for the same thing is repeated. But for sanctuary we read רקיע, rekia, that is, the expanse of heaven, to which is added the epithet of power, because there we have a proof of the matchless power of God, so that we cannot look... read more

John Calvin

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 150:3

Verse 3 3.Praise him with sound of trumpet. I do not insist upon the words in the Hebrew signifying the musical instruments; only let the reader remember that sundry different kinds are here mentioned, which were in use under the legal economy, the more forcibly to teach the children of God that they cannot apply themselves too diligently to the praises of God — as if he would enjoin them strenuously to bring to this service all their powers, and devote themselves wholly to it. Nor was it... read more

Spence, H. D. M., etc.

The Pulpit Commentary - Psalms 150:1

Praise ye the Lord. Praise God in his sanctuary. This is the right rendering, and not that of the Prayer-book Version, "Praise God in his holiness." Israel is called upon to give God praise in his holy temple. Praise him in the firmament of his power ; i.e. in the broad expanse of heaven, the sign and seat of his power. read more
