The heathen raged At David's coming to the throne, and at the setting up of the kingdom of the Son of David. Compare Psalms 2:1-2. The kingdoms were moved With indignation, and rose up in a tumultuous, furious manner to oppose it. He uttered his voice He spake unto them in his wrath, Psalms 2:5, and they were moved in another sense; they were struck into confusion and consternation, put into disorder, and all their measures broken. The earth melted So that they found no firm footing; their earthly hearts failed them for fear, and dissolved like snow before the sun. The Lord of hosts is with us He who commands all the armies of heaven is on our side. Why then should we be afraid? The God of Jacob is our refuge That God who preserved our forefather Jacob in all his distresses, and hath made a gracious covenant with his posterity, defends us as in an impregnable fortress, where we need not fear any danger.
