Psalms 118:27 - John Trapp Complete Commentary

Bible Comments

God [is] the LORD, which hath shewed us light: bind the sacrifice with cords, [even] unto the horns of the altar.

Ver. 27. God is the Lord who hath showed us light] By giving us "the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ," 2 Corinthians 4:6, he "hath brought us out of darkness into his marvellous light," 1 Peter 2:9 .

Bind the sacrifice with cords] Make them fast there, till the priests shall have time to offer them. Spare for no cost in showing your thankfulness for Christ and his benefits. Some render it, Obligate solennitates in frondosis; Austin hath it, in confrequentationibus.
