Psalm 150:6

Geneva Study Bible - Psalms 150:6

150:6 Let every thing that hath {d} breath praise the LORD. Praise ye the LORD.(d) He shows that all the order of nature is bound to this duty, and much more God’s children, who ought never to cease to praise him, till they are gathered into that kingdom, which he has prepared for his, where they will sing everlasting praise. read more

James Gray

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Psalms 150:1-6

Psalms 135:0 Praises God for choosing Jacob (Psalms 135:1-4 ), extols His power in the natural world (Psalms 135:5-7 ), and in the deliverance of His people from Egypt (Psalms 135:8-9 ) and bringing them into the promised land (Psalms 135:10-12 ). All this is in contrast to the vanity of idols (Psalms 135:13-18 ). Psalms 136:0 Is of the same character as the preceding, but is notable for the chorus attached to each verse a chorus with which we have become familiar in other psalms (Psalms 106:1... read more

Joseph Parker

The People's Bible by Joseph Parker - Psalms 150:1-6

The Grand Doxology Psalms 146-150 How could the Book of Psalms end but in this way? Psalms cannot end in prose. Whether the arrangement is mechanical or inspired, it is the best possible. There is a fitness of things, and that fitness is realised in this peroration. It is as if a great broad river had suddenly become a resounding cascade; these five psalms are the final cataract. The Psalmist will have everything pressed into the choir. He will not have a small band. He ranges creation... read more

Paul E. Kretzmann

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Psalms 150:1-6

Concluding Hymn of Praise. The last Hallelujah Psalm is a fitting doxology for the whole Book of Psalms, proclaiming the place, theme, mode, and extent of God's praise. v. 1. Praise ye the Lord! Praise God in His Sanctuary, in the places set aside for His worship here on earth, no matter where they may be; praise Him in the firmament of His power, which was considered the foundation of the heavens. Earthly and heavenly places of dwelling and worship are mentioned together to indicate the... read more

Alexander MacLaren's Expositions of Holy Scripture - Psalms 150:6

Psalms BLESSEDNESS AND PRAISE Psa_1:1 - Psa_1:2 . - Psa_150:6 . The Psalter is the echo in devout hearts of the other portions of divine revelation. There are in it, indeed, further disclosures of God’s mind and purposes, but its especial characteristic is-the reflection of the light of God from brightened faces and believing hearts. As we hold it to be inspired, we cannot simply say that it is man’s response to God’s voice. But if the rest of Scripture may be called the speech of the... read more

Frederick Brotherton Meyer

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Psalms 150:1-6

the Praise-Songs of God’s People Psalms 149:1-9 ; Psalms 150:1-6 Israel was formed into a nation and delivered from Babylon, that her singers should lead the praises of mankind, and her teachers provide the metaphors and phrases for the world’s religious nurture. “This people have I made for myself,” said the Most High, “that they might show forth my praise.” Is it not also our Christian duty to be joyful in our King? Our religious life has not enough ecstasy and gladness in it to attract... read more

G. Campbell Morgan

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Psalms 150:1-6

This psalm which concludes the book, and all the Psalter as final doxology, is the most comprehensive, and illuminative illustration of perfect praise in the whole Psalter. In our analysis of it as doxology at the beginning of the book, its essential values are stated. The central place of prayer is the sanctuary, that is, the place of Divine manifestation, whether the earthly temple or the heavenly, matters nothing. The circumference is the firmament of His power which is the outer confine of... read more

James Nisbet's Church Pulpit Commentary - Psalms 150:6

HALLELUJAH!‘O praise God in His holiness: praise Him in the firmament of His power,’ etc.Psalms 150:1-Leviticus :; Psalms 150:6 (Prayer Book Version) I. Consider the nature of praise.—(1) From such passages as Isaiah 6:1-Leviticus :, Revelation 4:8; Revelation 14:1-Leviticus :, we collect with certainty thus much: that praise is the main element of the homage of saints and angels in the eternal world. And indeed it is difficult to imagine what besides it could be. The worship which created... read more

Arthur Peake

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 150:1-6

CL. Each book ends with a doxology. Here we have a much longer doxology, which closes Book V and the whole Psalter also. The praise of God begins from His sanctuary, i.e. probably from His sanctuary in heaven, not from the Temple on Zion.( See also Supplement) read more
