Praise the Lord from the earth - From among those who dwell on the earth. In respect to terrestrial objects, let these also unite in the praise of God. Ye dragons - On the meaning of this word, see Psalms 91:13, note; Isaiah 13:22, note. The word may mean a great fish, a whale, a sea monster, or a serpent. It would seem to refer here to whales and sea monsters. See the notes at Revelation 12:3. And all deeps - All that are in the depths of the sea. Not merely the “dragons” or sea monsters, but all that inhabit the oceans. return to 'Top of Page'
