Psalms 107:36 - Exposition

And there he maketh the hungry to dwell . God gives the laud, which he has thus blessed, to some previously famishing people; as he did Canaan to Israel after they had had but scant fare in the wilderness. That they may prepare a city for habitation ; literally, and they prepare . It is naturally their first thought to prepare themselves a settled dwelling-place (comp. Genesis 4:17 ; Genesis 11:4 ; Genesis 25:16 , etc.).
