Psalm Ps. 67. This psalm is a prayer that God will bless Israel with a fruitful harvest (v. 6) so that the rest of the world may come to know the true God. Singing this helps Israel to keep its own calling in view: their blessing is not simply for themselves but for the Gentiles too (see Gen. 12:2–3).
Ps. 67:1–3 Verse 1 adapts the priestly blessing of Num. 6:24–26. The congregation prays that God’s way (his saving power) may be known on earth.
Ps. 67:4–5 the nations be glad and sing for joy. It is likely that the psalmist is praying for the day when God’s rule (you judge) is extended to include the Gentiles (see Isa. 2:4; 11:3–4). The OT looks to a future era in which the Gentiles receive God’s light. This era is brought about by Jesus’ resurrection.
Ps. 67:6–7 To fear God means to hold him and his word in reverence (e.g., 5:7; 15:4; 25:12; see note on 34:8–14).
