V.1-4 The whole earth. It will yet be filled with the glory and the praise of the Lord. This is speaking of the millennium.
V.5-12 All Israel. “Come and see.” This beautiful Psalm calls upon everyone to come and see what the Lord will do, and the glory that will be shown openly.
V.6 Their thoughts go back to the time when they were brought out of Egypt, and though they did a lot of complaining, they now are filled with praise as they look back on the goodness of the Lord (v. 12).
V.16-20 The individual. “Come and hear.” Yes, not only come and see but come and hear. Let our voices be lifted up in praise and prayer and confidence, even though we may be surrounded by difficulties, for it is going to end in His presence with all its joy.
Psalm 67
Those believers in the “gospel of the kingdom” — to be preached after we have been taken to heaven — are brought into this wonderful blessing, and will be anxious that others may “come and see” (Psa. 66:55Come and see the works of God: he is terrible in his doing toward the children of men. (Psalm 66:5)); “come and hear” (Psa. 66:1616Come and hear, all ye that fear God, and I will declare what he hath done for my soul. (Psalm 66:16)); and “know” (Psa. 67:22That thy way may be known upon earth, thy saving health among all nations. (Psalm 67:2)); “praise” (v. 3); “be glad and sing for joy” (v. 4); and “God shall bless” (v. 7).
All believers shall see and enjoy the blessings of the Lord.
