A Commentary On The Psalms From Primitive and Mediæval Writers Volumes 1 To 4 by Rev. J.M. Neale D.D.

ARG. THOMAS. That we, made by CHRIST, ought to rejoice, serve and play unto Him. The Voice of the Apostles to the people. An exhortation to gratitude, that we should serve GOD.

VEN. BEDE. Whereas the word Confession is often set down in the Psalm according to the particular occasion, here it is, however, inscribed by itself in the title, because the whole of this Psalm belongs to the two kinds of Confession, to wit, of penitence and of praise.

In the first part of the Psalm the Prophet exhorts all creation to praise the LORD with exultation. O be joyful in the Lord, all ye lands. And lest thou shouldst suppose that this kind of confession is always to be used, he promises us in the second part that if we repent of our sins we can enter through the gates of His forgiveness. O go your way into His gates.

SYRIAC PSALTER. Anonymous. Concerning Joshua, the son of Nun, when he quelled the war of the Amorites. But in the New Testament, concerning the conversion of the Gentiles to the Faith.

EUSEBIUS OF CÆSAREA. The calling of the Gentiles.

S. ATHANASIUS. A Psalm of rejoicing.
