John Trapp on Psalms 47:7

Verſ. 7. For God is King of all the earth] q. d. Our King, ſaid I? it is too little; he is King of all the earth. A title vainly taken by ſome proud Princes, as Seſoſtris King of Aegypt, who would needs be called [non-Latin text not transcribed], Lord of the whole world. So, a Decree went out from Auguſtus Caſar, that all the World ſhould be taxed, Luk. 2.1. The great Turk Amurath the third ſtiled himſelf,Turk, Hiſt. 91 God of the earth, Governour of the whole world, &c. but theſe were but bubbles of words, as Saint Peter hath it, God is the ſole Monarch of the whole Earth, [non-Latin text not transcribed].

Sing yee praiſes with underſtanding] Non bacchantium more, but prudently, and with a well compoſed minde, ſaith Vatablus, Pſalmo Didaſcalico, ſaith Tremellim, with ſuch a Pſalm or Song, as whereby yee may rightly inform one another concerning his Kingdom, and your own duty. Heb. Sing yee Maſchil, that is,Quotquot ſapientes inrelligentes & petitieſtis pſallend one of the Pſalms that bear that title, as ſome ſenſe it: or, every one of you that hath skill in Songs, as others.
