F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Psalms 33:13-22

“The Eye of Jehovah” Psalms 33:13-22 The comprehensiveness of God’s providence, Psalms 33:13-15 . No one, however lowly or abject, is beneath notice. It is not that all hearts are alike in their aptitudes or intensity, but that there is not one that does not bear some trace, however defaced, of His image and superscription. God’s watchfulness, Psalms 33:16-19 . The preparations that men make against peril and poverty often fail them. A horse is a vain thing for safety. If God is not with... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Psalms 33:1-22

This is a triumphant song of praise, opening with a call to vocal and instrumental music. "Rejoice," "praise," "give thanks," "sing praises," "sing," "play"-thus all modes of expression are appealed to. The praise proceeds and the greatness and goodness of Jehovah are sung in general terms (4-11). The whole of the facts are summarized, His word is right, His work is faithful! (4). His character is perfect, combining light- "righteousness and judgment"; and love- "loving-kindness" (5). He is... read more

Wells of Living Water Commentary - Psalms 33:1-22

The Triune God Psalms 33:1-22 INTRODUCTORY WORDS It is important for us to get a scriptural vision of the triune God. In the Book of Genesis we read, "In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth." The word for God, however, is "Elohim." It is a plural word. It is scriptural to say that God the Father created the heaven and the earth. It is just as scriptural to say that God the Son created the heaven and the earth. It is likewise scriptural to say that God the Spirit created the... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 33:1-22

XXXIII. A Song of Praise.— This Ps. has no title in MT. It may have been added at a later time to an older collection, probably Psalms 33:3-Song of Solomon :. The LXX prefix, “ By David, when he changed his face before Abimelech ( sic) and he loosed him and he went away.” The Ps. is an invitation to praise Yahweh as the Creator and for His care of Israel throughout its history. Yahweh alone can save His people, and for that salvation the Psalmist will wait. read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Psalms 33:1-22

INTRODUCTION“This psalm is a fit companion, but by no means the second half, of the preceding one, being distinct from it both in matter and form. It indicates a more tranquil frame of mind, such as flows from the calm assurance of pence with God. There is nothing against its being of the time and from the pen of David. It consists of twenty-two verses, like the alphabetic psalms. It celebrates the praise of the God of providence and grace. It falls into two halves of eleven verses each.... read more
