Matthew Poole and continuators on Psalms 102:18

18 This shall be written for the generation to come : and the people which shall be created shall praise the LORD.

This wonderful deliverance shall not be lost nor forgotten but carefully recorded by thy people.

For the instruction and incouragement of all succeeding Generations. The singular number put for the plural, as is ordinary.

Which may be understood either 1. of the Jews which should be restored, who were in a manner dead and buried in the grave, and meer dry bones, Isa. 26. 19. Ezek. 37. and therefore their restauration might well be called a Creation, or, as it is elsewhere, a resurrection. Or 2. of the Gentiles who should be converted, whose conversion is frequently and might very justly be called a second Creation. See 43. 1, 7, 15. and 65. 18. Eph. 2. 10, 15.
