Psalms 118:20 - Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible

Bible Comments

This gate of the LORD, into which the righteous shall enter. This (supply, is the) gate of the Lord, into which the righteous shall enter - to "praise the Lord" (Psalms 118:19). Christ, "the King of glory," first comes in through the "everlasting doors" of the heavenly city, to make the way for us also to enter (Psalms 24:7). Compare the 'Te Deum' hymn of Ambrose, 'When thou hadst overcome the sharpness of death, thou didst open the kingdom of heaven to all believers.'
