Psalms 47:0 He is King Over All the Earth 1. In the midst of His people (Psalms 47:1-5 ) 2. The praise of His delivered people (Psalms 47:6-9 ) And now we see prophetically how the redeemed people clap their hands and shout unto God with the voice of triumph, for Messiah is King and then they sing praises unto the King, for He is King over all the earth and highly exalted. Every knee must bow and every tongue confess. read more
47:9 The princes of the people are gathered together, [even] the people of the God of Abraham: for the shields of the earth [belong] unto God: he {f} is greatly exalted.(f) He praises God’s highness, for that he joins the great princes of the world(whom he calls shields) to the fellowship of his Church. read more
Psalms 38:0 An appeal to God from chastisement because of iniquity (Psalms 38:1-4 ). The mental anguish is described in figures of physical disease, and yet it is not impossible that such disease may have been part of the chastisement (Psalms 38:5-8 ). The desertion of friends and the opposition of enemies also entered into it (Psalms 38:10-17 ). There are verses susceptible of an application to Christ, but others would prevent its application as a whole to him. Psalms 40:0 Messianic (compare... read more
How beautiful, and especially to us poor Gentiles, is the view, that the Holy Ghost, for the most part, always blends with the relation of Israel's salvation, the interest the Gentile church hath in the same. Sweet thought! they are joined and gathered together, as Abraham's seed, to the same glorious Shiloh. Precious Jesus! hasten the fulness of the Gentiles, that all Israel may be saved, and thou be crowned universal Lord of all. Genesis 49:10 ; John 11:51-52 ; Galatians 3:28-29 ; Romans... read more
REFLECTIONS HAIL! thou glorious, risen, ascended, and triumphant Saviour! Thou art indeed ascended up on high: Thou hath led captivity captive, and hast received gifts for men. Yea, Lord, for me, for many a poor rebellious sinner, that the Lord our God might dwell among them. And now, Lord, help me by faith to follow thee at the right hand of the Majesty on high. I know, Lord, and am fully persuaded, that all power is thine, in heaven and in earth. Lord! is it not thy blessed province, and is... read more
Seen. All the promises have been fulfilled. How could any one have thought that we should have been permitted to dedicate this temple under the patronage of the king of Persia? (1 Esdras vi. 8.) Who would not have feared, lest the Christian religion should perish, under such violent persecutions? Converts admire its beauty and strength. (Calmet) --- The completion of the prophecies is a wonderful confirmation and comfort of Christians, (Worthington) whose faith is founded indeed for ever.... read more
5-9 Praise is a duty in which we ought to be frequent and abundant. But here is a needful rule; Sing ye praises with understanding. As those that understand why and for what reasons they praise God, and what is the meaning of the service. It is not an acceptable service, if it is not a reasonable service. We are never to forget the end of Messiah's exaltation, so continually do the prophets dwell upon the conversion of the nations to the gospel of Christ. Why do we vainly fancy that we belong... read more

Expositor's Bible Commentary - Psalms 47:1-9
Psalms 47:1-9THE closing thought of Psalms 46:1-11 is nobly expanded in this jubilant summons to all nations to praise Jehovah as their King. Both psalms have a similar, and probably the same, historical basis: a Divine act so recent that the tumult of triumph has not yet subsided, and the waves of joy still run high. Only in Psalms 46:1-11 the effect of that God-wrought deliverance is principally regarded as the security and peace of Israel, and in this psalm as the drawing of the nations to... read more
