Glorious things are spoken of thee, O city of God. Selah.
Glorious things are spoken of thee, O city of God - by God, by man, among Israel, among the pagan (Hengstenberg). Psalms 46:1-11; Psalms 48:1-14 are samples. The ground of her "glory" is because she is 'the city of God.' Once that He departed, Ichabod was her state-`the glory was departed.'
