Psalms 50:1 - Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary

Bible Comments

CONTENTS

This Psalm, like the former, is in the nature of exhortation. It speaks, in the opening of it, as in the person of Jehovah. It reproves the Jews in their mistaken notions of sacrifices; points to the more spiritual services of the gospel; and in the conclusion, shows how the Lord will accept the services of the heart, with an eye to the sacrifice by Christ.

A Psalm of Asaph.

Psalms 50:1

The Speaker here is the Elohim-Jehovah; Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. What a sublime and magnificent account! The whole earth is summoned. And, no doubt, this is in reference to the gospel days, concerning which the Lord said, by Malachi that then incense should be offered to the Lord's name in every place with a pure offering. Malachi 1:11.
