Psalm 135:2 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 135:2

Ye that stand in the house of the Lord
That have a place and standing there, and go not out, being sons as well as servants; (See Gill on Psalms 134:1) and (See Gill on Psalms 84:4);

in the courts of the house of our God;
alluding to the courts in the temple, the court of the priests, where they stood and ministered, slaying and offering their sacrifices; and the great court, where all the Israelites stood and worshipped, ( 2 Chronicles 4:9 ) . So this may describe the worshippers of God in common, who should praise him: and happy are they that have a place here; see ( Psalms 84:1 Psalms 84:2 Psalms 84:10 ) .

Psalm 135:2 In-Context

1 Hallelujah! Praise the name of God, praise the works of God.
2 All you priests on duty in God's temple, serving in the sacred halls of our God,
3 Shout "Hallelujah!" because God's so good, sing anthems to his beautiful name.
4 And why? Because God chose Jacob, embraced Israel as a prize possession.
5 I too give witness to the greatness of God, our Lord, high above all other gods.
