Psalms 93

Clinging to a Counterfeit Cross
Verse 1

Psalm 93:1-5. This and the six following Psalms were applied by the Jews to the times of the Messiah. The theme is God‘s supremacy in creation and providence.

God is described as a King entering on His reign, and, for robes of royalty, investing Himself with the glorious attributes of His nature. The result of His thus reigning is the durability of the world.


Verses 2-4

His underived power exceeds the most sublime exhibitions of the most powerful objects in nature (Psalm 89:9).


Verse 5

While His power inspires dread, His revealed will should secure our confidence (compare Psalm 19:7; Psalm 25:10), and thus fear and love combined, producing all holy emotions, should distinguish the worship we offer in His house, both earthly and heavenly.
