To the end that [my] glory may sing praise to thee, and not be silent, etc.] Meaning either his soul, the more noble and glorious part of him; or the members of his body, his tongue, which is the glory of it, and with which he glorified God; (see <191609>Psalm 16:9); compared with (<440226>Acts 2:26), this was the end that was to be answered by changing the scene of things; and which was answered; O Lord my God, I will give thanks unto thee for ever; to the end of life, as long as he had a being, and to all eternity, (<19A433>Psalm 104:33). Jerom interprets the whole psalm of the resurrection of Christ.
