Psalms 19:1 - Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary

Bible Comments

CONTENTS

We have here another hymn, if not to the victories of Jesus in the works of grace, yet to his glory as manifested in the works of creation, and in the gospel of his salvation. In the former part, the wonders of God's power, as displayed in the creation of the heavenly bodies; in the latter, the still more marvellous power as set forth in the new creation of the soul.

To the chief Musician. A Psalm of David.

Psalms 19:1

The book of God in creation, which the heavens open to the world; so full and plainly demonstrates his Godhead, that, as the apostle speaks, the invisible things of God are clearly seen by the things, which he hath made, even his eternal power and Godhead. Romans 1:19. They most evidently prove a first cause, since they could not create themselves, nor have existed from eternity.

Psalms 19:1

1 The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork.
