Geneva Study Bible - Psalms 102:22
102:22 When the people are gathered {p} together, and the kingdoms, to serve the LORD.(p) He shows that Gad’s name is never more praised, than when religion flourishes and the church increases: which is chiefly accomplished under the kingdom of Christ. read more

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Psalms 102:1-28
The first psalm in this lesson suggests Psalms 74:0 on which we did not dwell, but both of which depict the desolations of Judah by the Babylonians (compare Jeremiah 52:12-14 ). On this supposition their date would be that of the captivity, and their author a later Asaph than the Asaph mentioned in David’s time. Psalms 80:0 Has captivity features also. Some would say it relates to the ten tribes, as the preceding psalm does to Judah. The next several psalms are much alike in this respect and... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Psalms 102:19-23
How truly lovely is it to observe, through every part of Scripture, the confirmation of the everlasting love, and unchangeable purposes of Jehovah, concerning redemption! It was this tender look of God from heaven (speaking after the manner of men) which prompted the infinite mind of God, our Father, to raise up a Saviour, and a Great One; and to send his Son to be the Saviour of the world. Compare Isa_19:20; Isa_61:1-3 ; with Luke 4:18-19 . read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Psalms 102:24
I do not presume to say as much, but I would ask, is not this verse a prayer of Christ, as the Christ of God? Taking it in connection with what went before, God the Father is represented as beholding the sin and misery of the church. He adds, in this view, that his name shall be declared in Zion; and he will loose those appointed unto death. To these blessed declarations the answer is, that the church's great Head, in the days of his flesh is afflicted, yea, his strength is weakened, as had... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Psalms 102:25-28
From the apostle Paul's quotation of this glorious passage, Hebrews 1:10 , etc. and his illustration of it, as there explained, it should seem very evident that these verses contain God the Father's answer to Christ's prayer, and form a blessed summary of all redemption mercies ensured to the church in Him. And therefore the church may, with full assurance of faith, take to herself, and every individual of the church, with equal right in Christ, the whole blessings of covenant promises in... read more
