Matthew Henry’s Modern English CommentaryPsalms 93

The Glory and Majesty of GodThis psalm celebrates God’s rule over all creation. It reminds us that not only is God the rightful King, but He is also actively ruling and guiding everything according to His will. The psalmist wants us to remember that God’s power, wisdom, and holiness are far above anything in this world. No matter what happens, God’s throne is secure, and His promises are sure.v. 1: The psalmist declares, The Lord

v. 2: The psalmist continues, Your throne is established from of old; You are from everlasting . God’s right to rule comes from the fact that He created everything. His throne and authority have always existed and will never end (1 Corinthians 15:24 ).

v. 3: He describes trouble in the world: The floods have lifted up, O Lord

v. 4: The psalmist reassures us: The Lord

v. 5: The psalm ends with a reminder of God’s faithfulness and holiness: Your testimonies are very sure; holiness adorns Your house, O Lord
