Psalms 67:2 - Exposition

That thy way may he known upon earth, thy saving health among all nations. God is besought to bless his people Israel ( Psalms 67:1 ), in order that so his "way" may become known to all the earth, his "saving health," or his "salvation," to all (heathen) nations. The idea is not raised of any compulsory empire, but of one which will gradually extend itself, by winning the heathen over to it through the sight of Israel's blessedness (comp. Isaiah 49:18-23 ; Isaiah 60:3 , Isaiah 60:4 ).
