Psalm 113 returns to the praise of Jehovah “from this time forth and for evermore.” Verses 3 and 4 would make it plain that the blessing is world-wide, and not limited to the land of Palestine. There is none like Him, who, having placed His dwelling on high, humbles Himself to look on the heavens and on the earth. The poor and the needy are those whom He has blessed, lifting them from the lowest place to an exalted one, and the barren woman is made to keep house as a joyful mother of children.
All blessing is seen to be from God, and this we well know is true of the Christian, equally as it shall be true of the Israelites in the time of which the psalms treat. God delights to bless His people.
