Psalms 96:11,12 - Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary

Bible Comments

In these verses, the soul of the inspired writer is so lifted up, that he even calls upon the inanimate parts of creation to join in celebrating the glorious king Messiah's praises. The heavens and the earth, the sea and its fulness, the fields and the trees of the wood, all shall manifest, by tokens, joy in the glories of their Creator. For as the whole creation groaneth by reason of the fall, so in redemption everything shall bear a part in holy joy.

Psalms 96:11-12

11 Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth be glad; let the sea roar, and the fulnessa thereof.

12 Let the field be joyful, and all that is therein: then shall all the trees of the wood rejoice
