Psalm 24:2 NASB,NASB

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Psalms 24:1-10

This is the final psalm of the three, and as in Psa 22:1-31 the words so far exceed the possibility of exhaustion by any circumstances originating them as to create an opinion unanimously in favor of their Messianic application. In this song the Saviour who through suffering triumphed, the Shepherd; who through pilgrimage leads His own, is seen ascending to the place of power and authority. The first movement recognizes the sovereignty of Jehovah over the created world and its inhabitants... read more

James Nisbet's Church Pulpit Commentary - Psalms 24:1-2

THE EARTH IS THE LORD’S‘The earth is the Lord’s, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein. For He hath founded it upon the seas, and established it upon the floods.’ Psalms 24:1-Exodus : If it be in truth God’s creation, God’s universe, it must be also the manifestation of God, and address itself ever to what is highest, divinest, most spiritual in us.

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Psalms 24:1-2

The Glory of YHWH (Psalms 24:1-2 ). Psalms 24:1-2 ‘YHWH’s is the earth and its fullness, The world, and those who dwell in it. For HE has founded it upon the seas, And established it upon the floods.’ Note the continual parallelisms throughout the Psalm where the second statement repeats the idea of the first in a different way, typical of Hebrew poetry. The initial verses make clear that YHWH, the One who is to seek entry into Jerusalem, is the Creator of the whole earth, Who therefore... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Psalms 24:2

Justly have I said that the earth is the Lord’s, for he made it, and laid the foundation of it, and that in a wonderful manner. By the seas and floods he means the whole collection of waters, as well the sea and rivers running into it, as that great abyss of waters which is contained in the bowels of the earth, of which see Genesis 7:11; Genesis 49:25; 2 Peter 3:5. This is here mentioned as an evidence of God’s wise, and powerful, and gracious providence, that he hath built so vast a building... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Psalms 24:1-10

INTRODUCTION“This grand choral hymn was in all probability composed and sung on the occasion of the removal of the ark from the house of Obed-Edom to the city of David, on Mount Zion (2 Samuel 6:0). It was a day of solemn gladness and triumph. No long period had elapsed since David had wrested the stronghold of Zion from the last remnant of the hill-tribes of the Canaanites which lingered in Palestine. Henceforth this mountain-city, deemed by its ancient inhabitants impregnable, was selected by... read more

Psalms 24:1-2The earth is the Lord’s and the fulness thereof.The earth the Lord’sSo the Psalmist in this place speaks of the Divine sovereignty and of the Divine purpose and programme. The Divine sovereignty--the earth is the Lord’s, and the fulness thereof. God stretches out His sceptre over all places, all peoples, all events. However you parcel the earth out, He is the great Landlord and the Sovereign Ruler doing according to His will amongst the inhabitants of the earth. And the Psalmist... read more
