Psalms 148:14

14. He also exalteth the horn of his people… a people near unto him The climax of Jehovah’s works, and of the praise due, is at length reached. Above created nature, above nations, above all human ranks of age or honour, near to the heart of God, stands the Church, the spiritual Israel, the fruit of his redeeming love. The allusion supposes Israel to have been recently exalted to honour from abasement. The language suits the restoration from captivity. The event astonished the nations, and became the theme of a “new song” of praise. Thus the moral government and redemption will for ever stand out the distinguishing glory of God.
