Psalms, Chapter 99
Israel is required to praise God, for their hasty constitution both in church and state, ver. 1 - 5. Some instances of the happy administration of it, ver. 6 - 9.

1: People - Such as are enemies to God and his people. Sitteth - Upon the ark. He is present with his people. Earth - The people of the earth. Moved - With fear and trembling.

3: Them - All people.

4: Judgment - Though his dominion be absolute, and his power irresistible, yet he manages it with righteousness. The king's strength is by a known Hebraism put for the strong, or powerful king. Equity - In all thy proceedings.

5: Foot - stool - Before the ark, which is so called, (1Ch 28:2). Holy - It is consecrated to be a pledge of God's presence.

6: Moses - Moses before the institution of the priesthood executed that office, (Ex 24:6). That call - Who used frequently and solemnly to intercede with God on the behalf of the people.

7: Spake - To some of them: to Moses and Aaron,(Ex 19:24,33:9-11,1Sa 7:9), &c.

8: Them - The intercessors before mentioned. Forgavest - The people for whom they prayed, so far as not to inflict that total destruction upon them which they deserved;
