Matthew Poole and continuators on Psalms 33:3

3. Sing unto him a new song , play skilfully with a loud noise.

Either, 1. Newly Composed. As God gives you [illegible: 1 word] occasions, so do not you content your selves with the ol[illegible: 1+ letters] Songs or Psalms, made by the holy Men of God, but make New ones suited to the occasions. But neither had all the Rig[illegible: 1+ letters] ous, to whom he speaks, v. 1. the Gift of Composing Songs, nor was it of any Necessity or Importance, that they should make new Songs to praise God, at least for the Works here mentioned, when there were so many made by David, and other Holy Prophets, for the use of God's Church and People, when they had any such occasion. Or, 2. Renewed, or repeated, or sung again; in which Sence Iob saith, his G[illegible: 1+ letters]y was N[illegible: 1+ letters]w, or fresh in him, I[illegible: 1+ letters]b 29 20. (i. e.) Renewed, or continued from Day to Day, and the Command of Love is called New, Iob. 13. 34. because it was renewed and re-inforced by Christ. So this Song is here called N[illegible: 1+ letters]w, not so much from the Matter, as from the singing of it; because it was sung afresh, or again.
