Psalms 118:1 (King James Version)
O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good: because his mercy endureth for ever.
- A
- M. 2962. B.C. 1042. (Title.)
- This Psalm was probably composed by David after Nathan's prophetic address; and sung by alternate choirs at some public festival. It largely partakes of David's spirit, and everywhere shews the hand of a master; the style is grand and sublime; the subject noble and majestic.
