Read Psalms 93 in the Bible

Psalms 93:1

Stablished. An archaic word for “established.”

Psalms 93:2

Everlasting. See Ps. 90:1, 2; 8T 270.

Psalms 93:3

The floods. Or, “rivers.” Waters here may represent peoples, invading hosts (see Isa. 8:7, 8). Or the psalmist may be glorifying God as omnipotent above His creation.

Psalms 93:4

Is mightier. Verse 4, the answer to v. 3, may have been sung antiphonally.

Psalms 93:5

For ever. Only eternity will be ample enough to show that holiness characterizes the rule of God’s house. Holiness is the characteristic of divine sovereignty. Only in eternity will finite mortals begin to understand the infinite characteristics of Deity.
