Psalms 136:25 - Clarke's commentary and critical notes on the Bible

Bible Comments

Who giveth food to all flesh: for his mercy endureth for ever. Giveth food to all flesh - By whose universal providence every intellectual and animal being is supported and preserved. The appointing every living thing food, and that sort of food which is suited to its nature, (and the nature and habits of animals are endlessly diversified), is an overwhelming proof of the wondrous providence, wisdom, and goodness of God.

The Vulgate, Arabic, and Anglo-Saxon, add a twenty-seventh verse, by repeating here Psalms 136:3 very unnecessarily.
