Introduction
The psalmist calls on all the creation to praise the Lord. The angels and visible heavens, Psalm 148:1-6 ; the earth and the sea, Psalm 148:7 ; the meteors, Psalm 148:8 ; mountains, hills, and trees, Psalm 148:9 ; beasts, reptiles, and fowls, Psalm 148:10 ; kings, princes, and mighty men, Psalm 148:11 ; men, women, and children, Psalm 148:12 , Psalm 148:13 ; and especially all the people of Israel, Psalm 148:14 .
This Psalm has no title: but by the Syriac it is attributed to Happai and Zechariah, and the Septuagint and the Ethiopic follow it. As a hymn of praise, this is the most sublime in the whole book.
