Psalms 95:5 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 95:5

The sea is his, and he made it
He made it, and therefore it is, and all creatures in it; he sets bounds to it, and its waves, and restrains the raging of it at his pleasure, ( Matthew 8:26 Matthew 8:27 ) ,

and his hands formed the dry land;
the whole world, all besides the sea, the vast continent; he is the Maker of it, and all creatures in it; without him was nothing made that is made; and, being the Creator of all things, is the proper object of worship, ( John 1:2 John 1:3 ) ( Romans 1:25 ) , as follows.

Psalms 95:5 In-Context

3 For the LORD is a great God, and a great King above all gods.
4 In his hand are the depths of the earth; the heights of the mountains are his also.
5 The sea is his, for he made it; for his hands formed the dry land.
6 O come, let us worship and bow down, let us kneel before the LORD, our Maker!
7 For he is our God, and we are the people of his pasture, and the sheep of his hand. O that today you would hearken to his voice!
