Notes on the Whole Bible
Albert Barnes (1798–1870) · 19th-century historical commentary

Thy throne is established of old - Whatever might occur, the throne of God was firm. That could not be moved. It had been set up from all eternity. It had stood through all the convulsions and changes which had occurred in the universe; and it would stand firm forever. Whatever might change, that was immovable; and as long as that is unchanged we have a ground of security and hope. Should “that” be moved, all would be gone. The margin here is, as in Hebrew, “from then:” but it means “of old;” from the most ancient times; that is, from the period indicated by the next clause, “from everlasting.” Thou art from everlasting - From all eternity; thou hast always existed; thou art ever the same Psalms 90:1. return to 'Top of Page'
