Summary Of Commentaries Associated With The Selected Verse
Notes on the Bible, by Albert Barnes, [1834] |
All the earth shall worship thee - That is, all the inhabitants of the world will bow down before thee, or render thee homage. The time will come when thy right to reign will be universally acknowledged, or when thou wilt everywhere be adored as the true God. This is in accordance with all the statements in the Bible. See the notes at Psa 22:27; Compare the notes at Isa 45:23; notes at Rom 14:11.
And shall sing unto thee - Shall celebrate thy praises. "To thy name." To thee. |
Adam Clarke Commentary on the Whole Bible - Published 1810-1826 |
All the earth - The whole land shall worship thee. There shall no more an idol be found among the tribes of Israel. This was iterally true. After the Babylonish captivity the Israelites never relapsed into idolatry.
Selah - Remark it: this is a well attested truth. |
11 For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God.
23 I have sworn by myself, the word is gone out of my mouth in righteousness, and shall not return, That unto me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear.
27 All the ends of the world shall remember and turn unto the LORD: and all the kindreds of the nations shall worship before thee.
