Psalm 92:8 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 92:8

But thou, Lord, art most high for evermore
God is "the most High"; that is one of his names; he is above all, is higher than the highest; and he dwells on high, and looks down upon the inhabitants of the earth, and sees what is doing among them; and to him they will be accountable another day for what they do; and when wicked, men perish, being destroyed, he will continue for ever in all his greatness, glory, and majesty; for there seems to be an antithesis in this verse to the former, or between wicked men and the Lord; and besides he endures for ever to inflict punishment upon them; and therefore it is that they shall be destroyed for ever.

Psalm 92:8 In-Context

6 Stupid people can't know, fools don't understand,
7 that when the wicked sprout like grass, and all who do evil prosper, it is so that they can be eternally destroyed,
8 while you, ADONAI, are exalted forever.
9 For your enemies, ADONAI, your enemies will perish; all evildoers will be scattered.
10 But you have given me the strength of a wild bull; you anoint me with fresh olive oil.
