He has reigned, now reigns, will and must reign until all enemies are made his footstool; See Gill on Psa 93:1; see Gill on Psa 96:10, let the earth rejoice: not the land of Judea only, and the inhabitants of it, to whom the King Messiah came; for there were but few among them that received him, and rejoiced at his coming; but the whole earth, the vast continent, as distinguished from the isles after mentioned, and they that dwell upon it; the Gentiles, who had a concern in his coming, in whom they were to be blessed, to whom they were to be gathered, and in whom they should find a glorious rest; and therefore he is called the desire of all nations: the first preaching of the Gospel was occasion and matter of great joy to them; not only the blessings contained in it of peace, pardon, righteousness, and salvation by Christ; but the effects of it, delivering them from the dominion of Satan, the god of this world; and from superstition, and idolatry, with which they were enslaved; and the bringing them into the glorious liberty of the children of God: let the multitude of isles be glad thereof; the isles of the sea are many, even many thousands: Columbus, when he first discovered America, sailing by Cuba westward, gave names, as he passed along, to seven hundred islands, leaving three thousand more without names (r): Gejerus reports, from some writers, that an Indian king, in 1553, was converted to the Christian faith, that ruled over eleven thousand islands; and that in Maldivar there are reckoned to be sixteen thousand: well may the text speak of a multitude of them: or, "let the great islands", &c. such as ours of Great Britain and Ireland; these isles are said to wait for Christ and his doctrine, Isa 42:4 and therefore must be glad to hear of his…
Quelle öffnen ↗We have here nothing but echoes of the older literature: Psa 97:1, cf. Isa 42:10-12; Isa 51:5; Psa 97:2, cf. Psa 18:10, Psa 18:12; Psa 97:2 = Psa 89:15; Psa 97:3, cf. Psa 50:3; Psa 18:9; Psa 97:3, cf. Isa 42:25. Beginning with the visible coming of the kingdom of God in the present, with מלך ה the poet takes his stand upon the standpoint of the kingdom which is come. With it also comes rich material for universal joy. תּגל is indicative, as in Psa 96:11 and frequently. רבּים are all, for all of them are in fact many (cf. Isa 52:15). The description of the theophany, for which the way is preparing in Psa 97:2, also reminds one of Hab. 3. God's enshrouding Himself in darkness bears witness to His judicial earnestness. Because He comes as Judge, the basis of His royal throne and of His judgment-seat is also called to mind. His harbinger is fire, which consumes His adversaries on every side, as that which broke forth out of the pillar of cloud once consumed the Egyptians.
Quelle öffnen ↗What was to be said among the heathen in the foregoing psalm (Psa 97:10) is here said again (Psa 97:1) and is made the subject of this psalm, and of psalm 99. The Lord reigns; that is the great truth here laid down. The Lord Jehovah reigns, he that made the world governs it; he that gave being gives motion and power, gives law and commission, gives success and event. Every man's judgment proceeds from the Lord, from his counsel and providence, and in all affairs, both public and private, he performs the thing which he himself has appointed. The Lord Jesus reigns; the providential kingdom is twisted in with the mediatorial and the administration of both is in the hand of Christ, who therefore is both the head of the church and head over all things to the church. The kingdom of Christ is so constituted that, I. It may be matter of joy to all; and it will be so if it be not their own fault. Let the earth rejoice, for hereby it is established (Psa 96:10); it is honoured and enriched, and, in part, rescued from the vanity which by sin it is made subject to. Not only let the people of Israel rejoice in him as King of the Jews, and the daughter of Zion as her King, but let all the earth rejoice in his elevation; for the kingdoms of the world shall, more or less, sooner or later, become his kingdoms: Let the multitude of isles, the many or great isles, be glad thereof. This is applicable to our country, which is a great isle, and has many belonging to it; at least, it speaks comfort in general to the Gentiles, whose countries are called the isles of the Gentiles, Gen 10:5. There is enough in Christ for the multitude of the isles to rejoice in; for, though many have been made happy in him, yet still there is room. All have reason to rejoice in Christ's government. 1. In the equi…

Even the created order is visibly affected and the wicked perish, but the people of Zion love his coming and rejoice. 97:1 The farthest coastlands represent the most remote parts of the world.

Der HERR regiert; die Völker erzittern; er thront über Cherubim, die Erde wankt!
welcher uns errettet hat aus der Gewalt der Finsternis und versetzt in das Reich des Sohnes seiner Liebe,
Der HERR ist König, mit Majestät bekleidet; der HERR ist angetan, ist umgürtet mit Macht; auch der Weltkreis steht fest und wird nicht wanken.
und sprachen: Wir danken dir, Herr, allmächtiger Gott, der da ist, und der da war, daß du deine große Macht an dich genommen und die Regierung angetreten hast!
Frohlocket, ihr Himmel, und lobsinge, du Erde! Brechet in Jubel aus, ihr Berge, denn der HERR hat sein Volk getröstet und erbarmt sich seiner Bekümmerten!
Gepriesen sei das kommende Reich unsres Vaters David! Hosianna in der Höhe!
Und sie werden als Befreier nach dem Berge Zion hinaufziehen, um das Gebirge Esau zu richten. Und die Königsherrschaft wird dem HERRN gehören!
Und ich will ein Zeichen an ihnen tun und aus ihrer Mitte Gerettete entsenden zu den Heiden nach Tarsis, Phul und Lud, zu den Bogenschützen gen Tubal und Javan, nach den fernen Inseln, die noch keine Kunde von mir erhalten und meine Herrlichkeit nicht gesehen haben; sie sollen meine Herrlichkeit unter den Heiden verkündigen.
Die Inseln schauen und schaudern, die Enden der Welt erschrecken: sie nähern sich und kommen herzu.
Ja, auf mich warten die Inseln und zuallererst die Tharsisschiffe, um deine Söhne von ferne herzubringen, samt ihrem Silber und Gold, um dem HERRN, deinem Gott, einen Namen zu machen, und dem Heiligen Israels, weil er dich herrlich gemacht hat.
