Psalmen 93:2 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 93:2

Thy throne is established of old
Or "prepared from eternity" F2; Christ was set up and anointed as King from everlasting; he had a kingdom appointed and prepared for him so early; and his throne, which is prepared in the heavens, is an established one; it is for ever and ever; his kingdom is an everlasting kingdom; of his government, and the increase of it, there is no end:

thou art from everlasting;
as a divine Person, as God, and the Son of God; or he could not have been anointed unto or invested with the kingly office so early; nor have had a glory with his Father before the world began: his eternal existence, as God, accounts for the establishment of his throne of old, without which it could not be.

Psalmen 93:2 In-Context

1 De HEERE regeert, Hij is met hoogheid bekleed; de HEERE is bekleed met sterkte, Hij heeft Zich omgord. Ook is de wereld bevestigd, zij zal niet wankelen.
2 Van toen af is Uw troon bevestigd, Gij zijt van eeuwigheid af.
3 De rivieren verheffen, o HEERE! de rivieren verheffen haar bruisen; de rivieren verheffen haar aanstoting.
4 Doch de HEERE in de hoogte is geweldiger dan het bruisen van grote wateren, dan de geweldige baren der zee.
5 Uw getuigenissen zijn zeer getrouw; de heiligheid is Uw huize sierlijk, HEERE! tot lange dagen.
