Psalms 29

A Psalm of David. This Psalm seems to have been composed by David after some extraordinary great thunder, lightning, and rain; whereby (it is probable) God had so discomfited his enemies, and put their forces into such disorder, that he easily got the victory over them. Whereupon he exhorts them in this Psalm to submit to that glorious Ma T jesty, from whom that thunder came: and who can so easily strike a sudden terror into the hearts of his stoutest and most resolved opposers. Theodoret applies it to the destruction of Sennacherib’s army, in Hezckiah’s time; for which Isce no foundation: nor for the title which is now in the LXX. (but Theodoret could not find in the Hexaplus); which makes the occasion of it to be David’s bringing the ark to the place he had prepared for it..,. t
