Psalms 96:1

Psa 96:1 O sing unto the LORD a new song: sing unto the LORD, all the earth.

Ver. 1. O sing unto the Lord a new song ] For this new mercy of the ark now brought into Jerusalem from the house of Obededom, 1 Chronicles 15:25 , but especially of Christ, typified by the ark, who should be preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up to glory, 1 Timothy 3:16 .

Sing unto the Lord, all the earth ] Which they could not do aright till they had heard, believed, and were sealed, Ephesians 1:13 . Unbelievers can have no true notion of God but as of an enemy; and, therefore, all their verbal praises are but a black sanctus, suitable to such saints.
