Psalms 48:8-14

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

Read in KJV Bible Reader

Psalms 48:8-14. As we have heard, so have we seen in the city of the LORD of hosts, in the city of our God: God will establish it for ever. Selah. We have thought of thy lovingkindness, O God, in the midst of thy temple. According to thy name, O God, so is thy praise unto the ends of the earth: thy right hand is full of righteousness. Let mount Zion rejoice, let the daughters of Judah be glad, because of thy judgments. Walk about Zion, and go round about her: tell the towers thereof. Mark ye well her bulwarks, consider her palaces; that ye may tell it to the generation following. For this God is our God for ever and ever: he will be our guide even unto death.

According to Alexander and Bonar, this last clause should be read, "He will be our Guide at death and over death." He will lead us across the Jordan, and be our God and our Guide in the land that floweth with milk and honey, whither we are bound; so, glory be unto the God of Abraham,Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, for ever and ever! Amen.
