Psalm 48:14 ASV

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 48:12-14

The Triumphant Inspection (Psalms 48:12-14 ). This may well originally have indicated a celebratory inspection of the walls carried out in triumphal procession in order to give thanksgiving to God, and it may even have been one that continued to be celebrated annually. Psalms 48:12 ‘Walk about Zion, And go round about her, Number her towers, Mark well her bulwarks, Consider her palaces, That you may tell it to the generation following. For this God is our God for ever and ever, He will be our... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 48:1-14

XLVIII. A Psalm which Describes the Impression made on a Pilgrim by his Visit to Zion. Psalms 48:1 f. Praise of Zion.— sides of the north is hard to comprehend. It has been explained as contrasting Zion, the true mountain of the North, with the Oriental Olympus ( Isaiah 14:13). The text, however, does not even hint at any such contrast. Mount Zion did indeed occupy the NE. corner of Jerusalem, but what of that? It has been suggested that the pilgrim came from the extreme S. of Egypt. But... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Psalms 48:14

This God; who hath done this great work. Even unto death, i.e. whilst we have a being. Birth and life, and the several ages of life and death, are oft ascribed to churches and commonwealths, both in Scripture and in other authors. This promise was made to the old and earthly Jerusalem, upon condition of their obedience, wherein they failing so grossly, lost the benefit of it, but it is absolutely made good to the new and heavenly Jerusalem, the church of Christ. read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Psalms 48:1-14

INTRODUCTIONSuperscription. “A Song and Psalm.” “It is not easy,” says Barnes, “to account for this double appellation, or to distinguish between the meaning of these words, though probably the real distinction is that the word Psalm refers to that to which it is applied, considered merely as a poem or composition; Song is applied with reference to its being sung in public worship.” “It embraced what was usually understood by the word Psalm, and it was intended also specifically to be... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Psalms 48:1-14

Psalms 48:0 There is one event, and only one, in Jewish history which corresponds point for point to the details of this Psalm the crushing destruction of the Assyrian army under Sennacherib. We may, with considerable probability, regard it as the hymn of triumph over the baffled Assyrian and the marvellous deliverance of Israel by the arm of God. The Psalm falls into three portions. There is the glory of Zion, the deliverance of Zion, and the consequent grateful praise and glad trust of Zion.... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Psalms 48:14

Psalms 48:14 I. We believe, first, in God the Father, who made us and all mankind, who created all things, and for whose pleasure they are and were created. God has not left Himself without witness among us. In volume after volume He has spoken to us. In voice after voice He has made known His will by His works which are all around us in the universe wherein we live; by His word which He inspired into holy men of old; by that conscience which is the lamp lit by the Spirit in every soul of man;... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Psalms 48:1-14

Psalms 48:1-14 Psalms 48:1-14 :Great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised in the city of our God, in the mountains of his holiness. Beautiful for situation, the joy of the whole earth, is mount Zion, on the sides of the north, the city of the great King ( Psalms 48:1-2 ).This is still looking forward into the Kingdom Age, when Jesus the great King will dwell in Jerusalem. His throne will be upon Mount Zion. So it is always so exciting to me when I go over to Jerusalem, one of my favorite... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Psalms 48:1-14

Title. A psalm for the sons of Korah. Asaph being dead, and his sons not named, we infer that the psalm, as many think, was composed on the Assyrian invasion; for then God was truly great in Zion, in the mountain of his holiness. Psalms 48:2 . Beautiful for situation. Dr. Lightfoot describes the situation of Jerusalem from original authorities. It stood on two hills; Zion was the higher, and more extended hill, being strongly fortified. This David called the Castle: but after the... read more

Psalms 48:1-14Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised.A song of deliveranceThe psalm has manifestly some historical basis. What is it? The psalm gives these points--a formidable muster before Jerusalem of hostile people under confederate kings with the purpose of laying siege to the city--some mysterious cheek which arrests them before a sword is drawn, as if some panic fear had shot from its towers and shaken their hearts--and a flight in wild confusion from the impregnable dwelling-place... read more
