Psalms118:15-16

Verſ. 15. The voice of rejoycing, &c.] q.d. Though themſelves are but travellers, and their habitations tabernacles or tents; yet are they not without the joy of their ſalvation, which is unſpeakable, and full of glory; ſo that they go merrily on their way feeding on this hony-comb (as once Sampſon) and Gods Statutes are their ſongs in the houſe of their Pilgrimage, Pſal. 119.54.

The right hand of the Lord, &c.] This and that which followeth is the righteous mans ditty which hee ſingeth unceſſantly. See on verſ. 4.

Verſ.Haec eſt vox Epini[illegible: 1 letter]il. 16 The right hand of the Lord is exalted] By right hand here ſome underſtand the humanity of Chriſt, Gods hand and our handle, whereby wee come to take hold of God.

The right hand of the Lord doth valiantly] Thrice hee celebrateth Gods right hand; to ſet forth his earneſt deſire to ſay the utmoſt; or in reference to the ſacred Trinity, as ſome will have it.
