According to thy name, O God, so [is] thy praise unto
the
ends of the earth
That is, as he himself is in the perfections of his nature, which
are displayed in the works of his bands, throughout the whole
creation; so is or ought his praise to be: or rather, as in the
latter day his name will be great in all the earth, ( Malachi 1:11
) ; so will his praise be; and as his name will be One, (
Zechariah 14:9 ) ; he
will be one Lord, there will be one faith and one baptism; his
worship, word, and ordinances, will be uniformly observed and
attended to; so will be his praise: all the saints will unite
together in giving glory to him: he, and he alone, shall be
exalted. Moreover, his Gospel is his name, ( Acts 9:15 ) ; and that in
the latter day will be preached to every nation, kindred, tongue,
and people, ( Revelation
14:6 ) ; and multitudes, both of Jews and Gentiles, will be
convert ed, and from the uttermost parts of the earth will be
heard songs of praise and glory unto him, ( Isaiah 24:15
Isaiah
24:16 ) ;
thy right hand is full of righteousness:
of all spiritual blessings for his people; and particularly of
the righteousness of Christ, which God accepts of, imputes unto,
and liberally bestows upon them: and it is also full of punitive
justice, which he inflicts on his and their enemies; his right
hand teaches him terrible things, and these terrible things he
does in righteousness; all his works are in righteousness, which
the right hand, being the instrument of action, is a token of.
Moreover, Christ is the right hand of God; he is the man of his
right hand, and as dear to him as his right hand; he is the right
hand of his righteousness, by which he upholds his people; and
this right hand of his is full of righteousness; he does nothing
else but righteousness; he is the author and donor of it to his
people, and will execute righteousness upon his enemies; in
righteousness he will make war with them, ( Revelation
19:11 ) ; and which is greatly the sense of this passage, as
appears by ( Psalms 48:11
) .
