Psalms 7:7 - Exposition

So shall the congregation of the people compass thee about . Titan, if thou wilt show thyself in judgment, the congregation of the peoples — not , apparently, Israel only—will crowd around thee, in acknowledgment of thy majesty, and recognize in thee the righteous Judge of all the earth. For their sakes therefore return thou on high ; rather, and above it (or, above them ; i.e. above the congregation of the peoples) re turn thou on high. After coming down to earth, and executing judgment, then go back to thy throne in heaven.
