Psalms 146 - Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible

CXLVI. This Ps., like the remaining Pss. to the end of the Psalter, begins and closes with the word Hallelujah (Praise Yah). These Pss. may originally have formed a collection by themselves. The theme of the Ps. is much the same as that of Psalms 105. It is vain to trust man and a blessed thing to trust in God, who made the heaven and the earth, who protects those who love Him and relieves the desolate and oppressed.
