Psalm 87:2-7

Listen to Psalm 87:2-7
2 Der HERR liebt die Tore Zions über alle Wohnungen Jakobs.
3 Herrliche Dinge werden in dir gepredigt, du Stadt Gottes. (Sela.)
4 Ich will predigen lassen Rahab und Babel, daß sie mich kennen sollen. Siehe, die Philister und Tyrer samt den Mohren werden daselbst geboren.
5 Man wird zu Zion sagen, daß allerlei Leute darin geboren werden und daß er, der Höchste, sie baue.
6 Der HERR wird zählen, wenn er aufschreibt die Völker: "Diese sind daselbst geboren." (Sela.)
7 Und die Sänger wie die im Reigen werden alle in dir singen, eins ums andere.

Psalm 87:2-7 Meaning and Commentary

INTRODUCTION TO PSALM 87

\\<>\\. Whether this psalm was composed by David, in a view of the temple to be built by his son Solomon; or whether by one that returned from the Babylonish captivity, who wrote it for the comfort of those that wept at the laying of the foundation of the second temple; it seems evident that the subject matter of it is the church of God in Gospel times, and especially in the latter day glory: the title in the Syriac version is, ``concerning the redemption of Jerusalem.''
