Psalm 118 kjv6/30/2023 ![]() ![]() There is nothing that diffuses so much happiness through a family as religion there is no joy like that when a member of a family is converted there is no place on earth more happy than that where a family bows before God with the feeling that all are children of God and heirs of salvation. (c) God will add to the happiness of the righteous, or will make their habitation happy, peaceful, blessed. (b) it is appropriate that it should be so, or that a righteous family should be happy - the dwelling-place of praise (a) it is a fact that the voice of joy and rejoicing is there Is in the tabernacles of the righteous - The tents of the righteous their dwellings. ![]() Luther renders this beautifully "They sing with joy for victory in the houses of the righteous." Such as these were the triumphs of the Son of David in the assurance he had of the success of his undertaking, and that the good pleasure of the Lord should prosper in his hands.īarnes' Notes on the BibleThe voice of rejoicing and salvation - Rejoicing for salvation song, praise, thanksgiving. Indeed, it is not worth while to live for any other purpose than to declare the works of God, for his honour, and the encouragement of others to serve and trust in him. I shall not die - By the hands of my enemies that seek my life but live, and declare the works of the Lord - That is, I shall live a monument of God’s mercy and power his works shall be declared in me and by me and I will make it the business of my life to praise and magnify God, looking upon that as the end of my preservation. The right hand, &c., is exalted - That is, hath appeared evidently, and wrought powerfully and gloriously on our behalf: for what difficulty can stand before God’s zeal and omnipotence? There is a spirit, as well as strength, in all his operations for his people. Horne, “in the camp of the saints the church militant resounds with thanksgiving and the voice of melody paradise is restored below, and earth bears some resemblance of heaven, while these transporting hymns are sung in honour of our great Redeemer.” The right hand of the Lord doeth valiantly - These seem to be the words of that song of joy and praise now mentioned. “There is a noise of them that sing for joy,” says Dr. The voice of rejoicing and salvation - That is, of rejoicing and thanksgiving for the deliverances God hath wrought for them is in the tabernacle of the righteous - Because they clearly see God’s hand in the work, and therefore take pleasure in it. ![]()
