Psalm 97
97:1 The
a
LORD reigneth; let the earth rejoice; let the
b
multitude of isles be glad [thereof].
(
a) He shows that where God reigns, there is all
happiness and spiritual joy.
(
b) For the gospel will not only be preached in
Judea, but through all isles and countries.
97:2 c
Clouds and darkness [are] round about him: righteousness and judgment [are] the
habitation of his throne.
(
c) He is thus described to keep his enemies in
fear, who commonly contemn God's power.
97:4 His lightnings enlightened
the world: the earth saw, and
d
trembled.
(
d) This fear does not bring the wicked to true
obedience, but makes them run away from God.
97:7 e
Confounded be all they that serve graven images, that boast themselves of idols:
worship him,
f all [ye] gods.
(
e) He signifies that God's judgments are ready
to destroy the idolatry.
(
f) Let all who are esteemed in the world fall
down before him.
97:8 Zion heard, and was glad; and the
g
daughters of Judah rejoiced because of thy judgments, O LORD.
(
g) The Jews will have opportunity to rejoice
that the Gentiles are made partakers with them of God's favour.
97:10 Ye that
h
love the LORD, hate evil: he preserveth the souls of his saints; he delivereth
them out of the hand of the wicked.
(
h) He requires two things from his children: the
one that they detest vice, the other, that they put their trust in God for
their deliverance.
97:11 i
Light is sown for the righteous, and gladness for the upright in heart.
(
i) Though God's deliverance does not appear
suddenly, yet it is sown and laid up in store for them.
97:12 Rejoice in the LORD, ye righteous; and give
thanks at the
k remembrance of his
holiness.
(
k) Be mindful of his benefits and only trust in
his defence.
