Pulpit Commentary
Pulpit CommentaryVerse 21. - Bless ye the Lord, all ye his hosts. Here the inferior angels seem to be meant - that "multitude of the host of heaven" which appeared to the shepherds on Christ's natal day (Luke 2:13), and which is elsewhere often referred to in Holy Scripture (see Psalm 24:10; Psalm 148:2; Isaiah 40:26; Matthew 25:31; Mark 8:38; Luke 9:26; Hebrews 12:22; Jude 1:14). Ye ministers of his (comp. Psalm 104:4) that do his pleasure. The inferior, no less than the superior, ranks of angels continually carry out the will of God, being "ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation" (Hebrews 1:14).
Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(21) Hosts.--There are apparently in the psalmist's thought three grades of beings in the hierarchy of praise:--1.High angels around the throne.2. Angelic powers, such as winds, lightnings, &c, specially commissioned to do God's behests, as in Psalm 104:4.3.Creation generally. (Comp. Psalms 148)
