Psalm 93:2

2 Your throne was established long ago; You are from all eternity.

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 reigns! He is robed in majesty; the LORD has clothed and armed Himself with strength. The world indeed is firmly established; it cannot be moved.

2 Your throne was established long ago; You are from all eternity.

3 The floodwaters have risen, O LORD; the rivers have raised their voice; the seas lift up their pounding waves.

4 Above the roar of many waters— the mighty breakers of the sea— the LORD on high is majestic.

5 Your testimonies are fully confirmed; holiness adorns Your house, O LORD, for all the days to come.
