Pulpit Commentary
Pulpit CommentaryVerse 2. - The works of the Lord are great. Not his material works, but the doings of his providence (see vers. 3-9). Sought out of all them that have pleasure therein. Searched into and carefully studied by all who take an interest in such things. Deru-shim, "objects of study," is etymologically connected with madrasa, a college, a "place of study and research."
Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(2) Sought out--i.e., they are the object of meditation and enquiry. (See Note, Psalm 105:4.)

The best illustration of them may be found in the writings in which Mr. Ruskin warns this generation against the danger of insensibility to natural beauty.
