-Triple call to give unto the Lord glory, strength and worship. So in David's psalm, Psalms 29:1-2.
Verse 7. Give unto the Lord, O ye kindreds of the people. In Psalms 29:1-11 it is, "O ye sons of the mighty" - i:e., angels. He whom all the angels praise as their Lord is in the fullness of time to be praised by all the inhabitants of the earth: then shall the petition be fulfilled, "Thy will be done (by all men) on earth as it is (by all angels) in heaven." 'The difference between heaven and earth can only be temporary. The manifestation of the Lord's holy arm must remove that difference in His own time' (Hengstenberg).
Verse 8. Bring an offering - as earthly subjects "bring gifts" to a sovereign in token of allegiance (2 Samuel 8:2; Psalms 68:29; Psalms 72:10; Psalms 76:11).
And come into his court - (Psalms 92:13.)
Verse 9. (O worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness-or, 'in the glorious sanctuary.' See Psalms 29:2, note; Psalms 96:6 above, 'beauty (is) in His sanctuary.'
Fear before him all the earth. Reverential awe is the effect produced instinctively on even those who have no cause for slavish fear, in contemplating the approaching glory of God (Daniel 8:27; Daniel 10:8; Isaiah 6:5).
