Psalms113:1

Whole Psalm. The psalm contains three parts:

1. An exhortation to God's servants to praise him.

2. A form set down how and where to praise him, ver. 2, 3.

3. The reasons to persuade us to it.

(a) By his infinite power, ver. 4, 5.

(b) His providence, as displayed in heaven and earth, verse 6. —Adam Clarke.

The repetitions show,

1. The importance of praise.

2. Our many obligations to render it.

3. Our backwardness in the duty.

4. The heartiness and frequency with which it should be rendered.

5. The need of calling upon others to join with us.
