This is a thanksgiving hymn. It was probably composed upon the occasion of some remarkable victory that the Lord manifested to the church over her enemies. Some have gone so far as to determine it to have been for the triumph, in the days of Hezekiah, over the Assyrians; 2 Chronicles 20:28. But this is but conjecture. The Psalmist celebrates the glory and majesty of Jehovah, eminently shown in his church; and, in the close of the Psalm, exhorts the church to a suitable reverence and godly fear.
To the chief musician on Neginoth, A Psalm or Song of Asaph.
