mighty acts-- (Psa 145:4).
excellent greatness--or, abundance of greatness. |
| Notes on the Bible, by Albert Barnes, [1834] |
Praise him for his mighty acts - See the notes at Psa 145:4 : "One generation shall praise thy works to another, and shall declare thy mighty acts." The Hebrew word is the same. The reference is to that which displays the power of God; the things which manifest his omnipotence.
Praise him according to his excellent greatness - Hebrew, the multitude of his greatness. Let the praise in elevation correspond with this; let it be such as shall properly express this; let all be employed that will contribute to make this known, or that will be appropriate to this. Hence, the psalmist proceeds to call on all to make use of everything, by instrument and voice, that would in any manner set forth the praise of God. |
| Adam Clarke Commentary on the Whole Bible - Published 1810-1826 |
For his mighty acts - Whether manifested in creation, government, mercy or justice.
His excellent greatness - כרב גדלו kerob gudlo, according to the multitude of his magnitude, or of his majesty. After the manyfoldness of his mickleness - Anglo-Saxon. After the mykelnes of his greathede - Old Psalter. Let the praise be such as is becoming so great, so holy, and so glorious a Being. |
