Psalms 96:11 - Bullinger's Companion Bible Notes

Bible Comments

Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth be glad. The initials of the four Hebrew words making this sentence form an acrostic (App-6, App-60, and App-63), giving the four letters of the word JEHOVAH ( Y, H, V, H) thus:

Yismehu Hashshamayim Vethagel Ha'arez.

The Massorah (App-30) has. special rubric calling attention to this acrostic.
