Pulpit Commentary
Pulpit CommentaryVerse 7. - O King of nations. As time went on, the sacred writers became more and more distinct in their assertions of the truth that Jehovah, the Self-revealing God, is not Israel's King only, but also of the world (comp. Psalm 22:28; Psalm 47:7, 8; Psalm 96:10). To thee doth it appertain; viz. that men should fear thee. Forasmuch as, etc. (see above, on Ver. 6). Among all the wise men. "Men" is supplied, but doubtless rightly. It is a contest - how unequal a one! - between Jehovah and the sages of the heathen (comp. "Yet he also is wise," Isaiah 31:2).
Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(7) King of nations.--Emphatically, "King of the heathen" expressing the universal sovereignty of Jehovah in contrast with the thought that He was the God of the Jews only. (Compare Romans 3:29.)To thee doth it appertain.--Better, for it is thine, i.e., the kingdom over the heathen implied in the title just given.The wise men.--The word "men" is better omitted. Jehovah is not compared with the sages of the heathen only, but with all to whom they looked as sources and givers of wisdom.In all their kingdoms.--Better, in all their sovereignty.
