Ps. LXXXII. vv. 6-7.
The reference which our Lord made to these mysterious verses gives them an especial interest. The first apostasy, the fall of the angels, is, perhaps, intimated. Ps. LXXXVII. I would fain understand this Psalm; but first I must collate it word by word with the original Hebrew. It seems clearly Messianic. Ps. LXXXVIII. Vv. 10-12. Dost thou show wonders among the dead, or shall the dead rise up again and praise thee? &c. Compare Ezekiel xxxvii. Ps. CIV. I think the Bible version might with advantage be substituted for this, which in some parts is scarcely intelligible. V. 6.--the waters stand in the hills. No; STOOD ABOVE THE MOUNTAINS. The reference is to the Deluge. Ps. CV. V. 3.--LET THE HEART OF THEM REJOICE THAT SEEK THE LORD. |
