Psaume 113:8 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 113:8

That he may set [him] with princes
As all the saints are by birth, being the sons of God, the King of kings; born of him, and not of the will of man; and are of a princely spirit, have a free spirit, and offer themselves and services willingly to the Lord; have the spirit of adoption, in opposition to a spirit of bondage; and, as princes, have power with God and prevail; and are also heirs of God, heirs of salvation, heirs of a kingdom, as princes be; now such as are raised by Christ and his grace from a low estate and condition are set among those princes here; they are brought to Zion, and have a place and a name in the house of God, better than that of sons and daughters; and become fellowcitizens with the saints; and they are set among princes hereafter in the kingdom of heaven.

Even with the princes of his people;
the more eminent among the people of God, such as Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, with whom they shall sit down in the kingdom of heaven; and with the prophets of the Old Testament, and the apostles of the New; and even with all the saints, who are made kings and priests unto God; see ( Psalms 45:16 ) .

Psaume 113:8 In-Context

6 Il abaisse les regards Sur les cieux et sur la terre.
7 De la poussière il retire le pauvre, Du fumier il relève l'indigent,
8 Pour les faire asseoir avec les grands, Avec les grands de son peuple.
9 Il donne une maison à celle qui était stérile, Il en fait une mère joyeuse au milieu de ses enfants. Louez l'Eternel!
