Barnes' Notes
Albert Barnes (1798–1870) · Notes on the Whole Bible · 19th-century historical commentary
“In the courts of the Lord’s house - See the notes at Psalms 65:4. Compare Psalms 84:2; Psalms 92:13; Psalms 96:8; Psalms 100:4; Psalms 135:2. In the midst of thee, O Jerusalem - Where the tabernacle, and afterward the temple, was reared. Praise ye the Lord - Hallelujah. A call on others to join in the praise of God. The psalmist felt his own heart drawn to the service of praise by all the mercies of God; he desired, as an expression of his own feelings, that others should unite with him in that sacred exercise. When our own hearts are filled with gratitude, we wish that all others may partake of the same feeling. return to 'Top of Page' Footnotes: Copyright Statement These files are public…”
