Psalm 100:1 NIV

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Psalms 100:1-5

Here, I. The exhortations to praise are very importunate. The psalm does indeed answer to the title, A psalm of praise; it begins with that call which of late we have several times met with (Ps. 100:1), Make a joyful noise unto the Lord, all you lands, or all the earth, all the inhabitants of the earth. When all nations shall be discipled, and the gospel preached to every creature, then this summons will be fully answered to. But, if we take the foregoing psalm to be (as we have opened it) a... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Psalms 100:1

Make a joyful noise unto the Lord, all ye lands. Or, "all the earth" F3 כל הארץ "omnis terra", V. L. Pagninus, Montanus, Tigurine version, &c.; ; that is, as the Targum, all the inhabitants of the earth, who are called upon to shout unto him as their King; as the angels did at his birth, the disciples when he made his public entrance into Jerusalem, the apostles at his ascension to heaven, the saints when the marriage of him, the Lamb, will be come, and both men and angels when... read more

John Calvin

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 100:1

Verse 1 1Make a joyful noise The Psalmist refers only to that part of the service of God which consists in recounting his benefits and giving thanks. And since he invites the whole of the inhabitants of the earth indiscriminately to praise Jehovah, he seems, in the spirit of prophecy, to refer to the period when the Church would be gathered out of different nations. Hence he commands (verse 2) that God should be served with gladness, intimating that his kindness towards his own people is so... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Psalms 100:1

The joy of service. (Sermon for missions.) In this short psalm a note is sounded which echoes, and will never cease to echo, through the world. The trumpet of jubilee is blown, not for Israel, but for all mankind. Brief as this psalm is, it is one of the most wonderful portions of Scripture, glowing with self-evident light of inspiration, not poetic, but prophetic, Divine. This first verse exhibits the three characteristic features of the whole psalm—its catholicity; its joyfulness; ... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Psalms 100:1-5

Jubilate. This psalm, which comes at the close of the magnificent series of royal psalms, which tell of the reign of Christ Jehovah, has been called their doxology. It seems to have been sung during the thank offering in the temple service (Le Psalms 7:12 ). "Luther would have immortalized his name had he done no more than written the majestic air and harmony to which we are accustomed to sing this psalm, and which, when the mind is in a truly worshipping frame, seems to bring heaven... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Psalms 100:1-5

Worship. I. THE CALL TO THE WORSHIP OF GOD . 1 . It is to be the worship of joyful song. ( Psalms 100:1 , Psalms 100:2 .) Not the worship of silent thought, but of glad utterance. True fear and joy not incompatible. 2 . It is to be universal worship. ( Psalms 100:1 .) "All ye lands," or "All the earth"—Gentiles as well as Jews. 3 . It is to be the worship of thankful gratitude. ( Psalms 100:4 .) In remembrance of all the Divine benefits and mercies... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Psalms 100:1

Make a joyful noise unto the Lord - See the notes at Psalms 95:1.All ye lands - Margin, as in Hebrew, “all the earth.” The margin expresses the sense. The idea in the psalm is, that praise did not pertain to one nation only; that it was not appropriate for one people merely; that it should not be confined to the Hebrew people, but that there was a proper ground of praise for “all;” there was that in which all nations, of all languages and conditions, could unite. The ground of that was the fact... read more
