Tehillim 98:4 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 98:4

Make a joyful noise unto the Lord, all the earth
That is, all the inhabitants of the earth, as the Targum, to whom the joyful sound of the Gospel comes; (See Gill on Psalms 95:1),

make a loud noise, rejoice, and sing praise;
exalt and extend the voice to the highest pitch, in the most musical and melodious strains; this heap of words is used to express the intenseness of mind, vehemency of affection, and strength of spirit and exceeding greatness of joy, with which the Lord should be praised for his great and marvellous works.
