Salmos 118:29 NVT

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Psalms 118:19-29

We have here an illustrious prophecy of the humiliation and exaltation of our Lord Jesus, his sufferings, and the glory that should follow. Peter thus applies it directly to the chief priests and scribes, and none of them could charge him with misapplying it, Acts 4:11. Now observe here, I. The preface with which this precious prophecy is introduced, Ps. 118:19-21. 1. The psalmist desires admission into the sanctuary of God, there to celebrate the glory of him that cometh in the name of the... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Psalms 118:29

O give thanks unto the Lord, for he is good ,.... And thus the psalm ends as it began; there having been given many instances of the divine goodness, in hearing and delivering the psalmist when in distress; saving him from his enemies, when compassed about with them; sparing his life, when in great danger; and especially in making the stone rejected by the builders the head of the corner; for his mercy endureth for ever ; the above instances are proofs of it; and still it continues,... read more

Adam Clarke

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 118:29

O give thanks unto the Lord - This is the general doxology or chorus. All join in thanksgiving, and they end as they began: "His mercy endureth for ever." It began at the creation of man; it will continue till the earth is burnt up. read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Psalms 118:1-29

The first eighteen verses are the song of the procession as it winds its way slowly up the hill to the great gate of the temple, sung alternately, as it would seem, by the two halves of the procession. Psalms 118:19 is the utterance of the leader, in the name of the whole hand, on their arrival before the gates. Psalms 118:20 is the reply made to them by those inside. The procession, as it enters, sings Psalms 118:21-24 antiphonally as before, all joining in Psalms 118:25 . Those... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Psalms 118:22-29

The great reversal. To whomsoever these words ( Psalms 118:22 , Psalms 118:23 ) primarily referred, we have the highest authority for applying them to our Lord himself. In his case we have— I. THE GREAT REVERSAL . ( Psalms 118:22 , Psalms 118:23 .) No reversal of fortune in human affairs can be comparable to his experience. Consider: 1. His course on earth—the circumstances of his birth, of his youth, and of his manhood; his claims disowned, his truth rejected,... read more

Albert Barnes

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Psalms 118:29

O give thanks unto the Lord ... - The psalm closes, as it began, with an exhortation to praise God. In the beginning of the psalm, it was a general exhortation; here it is an exhortation founded on the course of thought in the psalm, or as a proper conclusion from what had been referred to in the psalm. Evidence had been given that the Lord was good; on the ground of that, all people are exhorted to give him thanks. read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Psalms 118:28-29

Psalms 118:28-29. Thou art my God, and I will praise thee, &c. In these verses the psalmist subjoins his own thankful acknowledgments of divine goodness, in which he calls upon others to join with him, and give thanks unto the Lord, because his mercy endureth for ever Thus he concludes the Psalm as he began it, Psalms 118:1, for God’s glory must be the Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, of all our addresses to him. read more

Donald C. Fleming

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Psalms 118:1-29

Psalms 118:0 A procession of thanksgivingOriginally this hymn was apparently sung by a combination of the temple singers, the congregation and the king, to mark some great national occasion such as a victory in battle. The scene is set in the temple, where the royal procession enters the gates and moves to the altar (see v. 19,20,27).The singers call Israel to worship, and the congregation responds with praise to God for his steadfast love (1-4). The king then recounts how, in answer to prayer,... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Psalms 118:1-29

Psalms 118This is the last in this series of the Egyptian Hallel psalms (Psalms 113-118). It describes a festal procession to the temple to praise and sacrifice to the Lord. The historical background may be the dedication of the restored walls and gates of Jerusalem in Ezra and Nehemiah’s time, following the return from Babylonian captivity, in 444 B.C. [Note: Wiersbe, The . . . Wisdom . . ., p. 306.] It contains elements of communal thanksgiving, individual thanksgiving, and liturgical psalms.... read more
