Psalms, Chapter 96
This psalm is a part of that which was delivered to Asaph and his brethren, (1Ch 16:7), on occasion of bringing up the ark to the city of David. Here is a call to praise God, as a great and glorious God, ver. 1 - 9. To rejoice in his judging all the world, ver. 10 - 13.

1: O sing - Upon this new and great occasion, not the removal of the ark, but the coming of the Messiah.

4: Gods - The gods of the nations, as the next verse expounds it.

6: Before him - In his presence.

9: Beauty - Cloathed with all the gifts and graces, which are necessary in God's worship.

10: Reigneth - God hath now set up his kingdom in the world. Established - The nations of the world shall by the means of it enjoy an established and lasting peace.

13: Before - At the presence and approach of their Lord and Maker. Cometh - To set up his throne among all the nations of the earth.
