His name shall endure for ever - Margin, as in Hebrew, “Shall be forever;” that is, “He” shall endure forever.
His name shall be continued as long as the sun - As long as that continues to shine - an expression designed to express perpetuity. See the notes at Psalms 72:5. The margin here is, “shall be as a son to continue his father’s name forever.” The Hebrew word - נון nûn - means “to sprout, to put forth;” and hence, to “flourish.” The idea is that of a tree which continues always to sprout, or put forth leaves, branches, blossoms; or, which never dies.
And men shall be blessed in him - See Genesis 12:3; Genesis 22:18. He will be a source of blessing to them, in the pardon of sin; in happiness; in peace; in salvation.
All nations shall call him blessed - Shall praise him; shall speak of him as the source of their highest comforts, joys, and hopes. See Luke 19:38; Matthew 21:9; Matthew 23:39. The time will come when all the nations of the earth will honor and praise him.
