Psalms 148:10

Psa 148:10 Beasts, and all cattle; creeping things, and flying fowl:

Ver. 10. Beasts ] i.e. Wild beasts, that are fullest of life; and therehence have their name in the Hebrew tongue.

And all cattle ] Domestic and tame beasts, even to the elephant; which is said to turn up the first sprig towards heaven, in token of thankfulness, by a natural instinct, when he comes to feed.

Creeping things ] Whether in earth or sea; all these are summoned in by the psalmist to pay their tribute of praise, and to do their homage to the Most High.
