Gill's Exposition on Psalms 22:27
All the ends of the world shall remember and turn unto the Lord,.... That is, all the elect of God among the Gentiles, who live in the farthermost parts of the world, for whom Christ is appointed to
Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Psalms 22:27
All the ends of the world shall remember and turn unto the LORD: and all the kindreds of the nations shall worship before thee. All ... shall remember, and turn unto the Lord.
Matthew Poole's Commentary on Psalms 22:27
All the ends of the world, i.e. all nations, from one end of the world to the other. So this is an evident prophecy of the calling of the Gentilesto the knowledge of God and Christ by thy gospel, and consequently a clear proof that this Psalm doth directly and immediately speak of Christ; to whom alone, and not to David, this and divers other passages of it do manifestly belong. Shall remember: it is not particularly expressed what they should remember, because there were several things that should and would be remembered by them, which were likely to occasion their turning to the Lord. They shall remember their former and manifold wickedness with grief, and shame, and fear; and particularly their sin and folly in worshipping dead and impotent idols that never did nor could do them either good or hurt. They shall remember that God who did make lively impressions upon their minds, which yet they had in great measure blotted out and forgotten, but now by the preaching of the gospel they shall be revived. They shall remember their great and manifold obligations to God, which they had quite forgotten; his patience and goodness in sparing them so long in the midst of all their impieties, and in revealing his gospel to them, and giving his Son for them. They shall remember the gracious words and glorious works of Christ, and what he did and suffered for them; which possibly divers of them had been eye and ear witnesses of in Judea, (although, with the unbelieving Jews, they despised and misconstrued them,) and others had heard the fame and tidings of them. Unto the Lord; unto the only true God, and unto Jesus Christ, to whom this name of Jehovah is ofttimes ascribed in Scripture. All the kindreds, Heb. all the families; which is not to be understood strictly of every particular person and family, but of all sorts and of great numbers of them; as such universal phrases are very frequently taken in Scripture.
Trapp's Commentary on Psalms 22:27
Psalms 22:27 All the ends of the world shall remember and turn unto the LORD: and all the kindreds of the nations shall worship before thee.Ver. 27. All the ends of the world shall remember] Shall turn short again upon themselves, as those Solomon prayed for, 1 Kings 8:47, and the prodigal, Luke 15:17. And turn to the Lord] From their dead idols, 1 Thessalonians 1:9. And all the kindreds of the nations, &c.] Christ, when he is lifted up, shall draw all men to him, John 12:32; the heavenly eagles from all parts shall fly to this dead, but all-quickening carcase, and shall feed thereupon.
Adam Clarke's Commentary on Psalms 22:27
Verse 27. All the ends of the world] The Gospel shall be preached to every nation under heaven; and all the kindred of nations, משפחות mishpechoth, the families of the nations: not only the nations of the world shall receive the Gospel as a revelation from God, but each family shall embrace it for their own salvation. They shall worship before Jesus the Saviour, and through him shall all their praises be offered unto God.
Cambridge Bible on Psalms 22:27
22–31. Convinced that his prayer is heard, the Psalmist breaks forth with resolutions of public thanksgiving (22–26); and the glorious prospect of Jehovah’s universal kingdom opens up before him (27–31). “Thou answerest not” (Psalms 22:2) is the key-note of Psa 22:1-21; “Thou hast answered me of Psa 22:22-31”. (Cheyne).
Barnes' Notes on Psalms 22:27
All the ends of the world - All parts of the earth; all nations. The earth is frequently represented in the Scriptures as having limits or boundaries; as spread out; as having corners, etc.
Whedon's Commentary on Psalms 22:27
27. All the ends of the world—The language of this verse cannot apply to David’s kingdom, but is a prophecy of the calling of the Gentiles by the preaching of the gospel. Matthew 28:19; Romans 16:26; Zechariah 14:9.
