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 Yahweh is king; he clothes himself with majesty. Yahweh clothes himself; he girds himself with might. Yes, [the] world is established [so that] it will not be moved.

2 Your throne [is] established from of old; you [are] from everlasting.

3 [The] rivers have lifted up, O Yahweh; [the] rivers have lifted up their {rumbling}; [the] rivers have lifted up their pounding.

4 [Mightier] than the rumblings of many waters, [mightier] than [the] mighty breakers of [the] sea, Yahweh on high [is] mighty.

5 Your testimonies are fully reliable. Holiness is fitting for your house, O Yahweh, {forever}.
