Psalms 93:4 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 93:4

The Lord on high is mightier than the noise of many waters,
&c.] Christ is the most High; he is God over all, higher than the highest; he is, as King, higher than the kings of the earth; he is in the highest heavens, and higher than they; he is highly exalted, as Mediator, at the right hand of God: he is the mighty God, and mighty Saviour; yea, he is Almighty, and therefore mightier than all his enemies, and the noise they make, and the force they use; he is stronger than the strong man armed; than Satan, and all his principalities and powers; than all the persecuting princes and potentates of this world; than antichrist, and all the antichristian states: yea, than "the mighty waves of the sea"; the same are intended as before F3.


FOOTNOTES:

F3 Vide Homer. Iliad. 21. v. 190, ]91. where the same is said of Jove, almost in the same words, and repeated as here.

Psalms 93:4 In-Context

1 God is King, robed and ruling, God is robed and surging with strength. And yes, the world is firm, immovable,
2 Your throne ever firm - you're Eternal!
3 Sea storms are up, God, Sea storms wild and roaring, Sea storms with thunderous breakers.
4 Stronger than wild sea storms, Mightier than sea-storm breakers, Mighty God rules from High Heaven.
5 What you say goes - it always has. "Beauty" and "Holy" mark your palace rule, God, to the very end of time.
