Psalms 96:9 - Clarke's commentary and critical notes on the Bible

Bible Comments

O worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness: fear before him, all the earth. Worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness - I think בהדרת קדש behadrath kodesh, signifies holy ornaments, such as the high priest wore in his ministrations. These were given him for glory and beauty; and the psalmist calls on him to put on his sacerdotal garments, to bring his offering, מנחה minchah, and come into the courts of the Lord, and perform his functions, and make intercession for the people.
