Psalm 93:2

2 The seat of your power has been from the past; you are eternal.

Psalm 93:2 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 93:2

Thy throne is established of old
Or "prepared from eternity" ^F2; Christ was set up and anointed as King from everlasting; he had a kingdom appointed and prepared for him so early; and his throne, which is prepared in the heavens, is an established one; it is for ever and ever; his kingdom is an everlasting kingdom; of his government, and the increase of it, there is no end:

thou art from everlasting;
as a divine Person, as God, and the Son of God; or he could not have been anointed unto or invested with the kingly office so early; nor have had a glory with his Father before the world began: his eternal existence, as God, accounts for the establishment of his throne of old, without which it could not be.

Psalm 93:2 In-Context

1 The Lord is King; he is clothed with glory; the Lord is clothed with strength; power is the cord of his robe; the world is fixed, so that it may not be moved.

2 The seat of your power has been from the past; you are eternal.

3 The rivers send up, O Lord, the rivers send up their voices; they send them up with a loud cry.

4 The Lord in heaven is stronger than the noise of great waters, yes, he is stronger than the great waves of the sea.

5 Your witness is most certain; it is right for your house to be holy, O Lord, for ever.
