Psalms 107:32 - Exposition

Let them exalt him also in the congregation of the people . The psalmist holds it to be not enough for men who have received deliverances to thank God in their hearts, or secretly in their chambers. He requires them to make public profession of their thankfulness "in the congregation of the people." The Christian Church maintains the same attitude. And praise him in the assembly of the elders . The elders led the congregation and presided in it ( Ezra 3:9-11 ; Ezra 6:16-22 ; Nehemiah 8:4-9 ; Nehemiah 9:4 , Nehemiah 9:5 ; Nehemiah 12:27-43 , etc.).
