Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerses 12-17. - Comfort springs from the thought of God's previous deliverances of his people, and of his other great mercies. The deliverance from Egypt has the foremost place (vers. 13,14), as the most striking. Then the deliverance from the wilderness, and the passage of Jordan (ver. 15). From these the poet passes to God's mercies in nature - day and night, light and sun, set bounds of earth and sea, alternations of the seasons - all formed and arranged by the Almighty (vers. 16, 17). Verse 12. - For God is my King of old (comp. Psalm 44:4). As "King," he has power to perform all that he wills, to set up and to cast down, to give into the enemy's hand and to deliver. Working salvation in the midst of the earth. Not in any imaginary earth centre, but, as Professor Cheyne says, "quite broadly, in various parts of the earth" (comp. Exodus 8:22).

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(12) For.--Better, and, or and yet.My king.--The poet speaks for Israel. (Comp. Psalm 44:4; Habakkuk 1:12.)In the midst of the earth.--Or, as we might say, "on the great theatre of the world." Certainly we must not render here land instead of earth, since the wonders of Egypt, &c, are the theme.
