Psalm Ps. 47. This psalm celebrates God’s rule over all the earth (see note on 5:2). The promises to Abraham (47:9), that all peoples will be blessed in him (Gen. 12:3), are founded on the fact that there is only one true God. All mankind owes him love and loyalty.
Ps. 47:1–4 The Lord loves Israel and gave them their heritage. They hold this special place in order to show all peoples how to fear and love God. God’s subduing of the Canaanites is not his final word for the Gentiles.
Ps. 47:5–7 This probably looks back to the ark going to reside in Jerusalem. Second Samuel 6:15 tells of how the ark was made to go up with a shout (see Psalm 24).
Ps. 47:8–9 The psalm looks forward to the day when the Gentile princes of the peoples gather for worship as the people of the God of Abraham, that is, the people to whom the blessing of Abraham has finally come.
