John Gill
INTRODUCTION TO Psalms 95 This psalm, though without a title, was written by David, as appears from Hebrews 4:7, and to him the Septuagint, Vulgate Latin, Syriac, Arabic, and Ethiopic versions ascribe it. It belongs to the times of the Messiah, as Kimchi observes; the apostle applies it to the Jews of his time, and bespeaks them in the language of it, Hebrews 3:7, and in which time Israelites,...
John Gill
For he is our God,.... God over all, blessed for ever, truly and properly God, and therefore to be worshipped: "our God"; in whom we have interest, who became our head and surety in covenant; took upon him our nature, is our "Immanuel", God with as, which increases the obligation to worship him; these are the words of New Testament saints: and we are the people of his pasture; for whom he has...
Matthew Henry
For the expounding of this psalm we may borrow a great deal of light from the apostle's discourse, Heb. iii. and iv., where it appears both to have been penned by David and to have been calculated for the days of the Messiah; for it is there said expressly (Heb. iv. 7) that the day here spoken of (ver. 7) is to be understood of the gospel day, in which God speaks to us by his Son in a voice which...

O come, let us worship and bow down: let us kneel before the LORD our maker. For he is our God; and we are the people of his pasture, and the sheep of his hand. Blessed are we if we can say this in very truth, we are highly privileged to have this God to be our God, and to be ourselves his purchased inheritance, the objects of his daily care: “the people of his pasture, and the sheep of his hand.”
Charles H. Spurgeon
To day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your heart, It is a tender heart that hears God’s voice, and the heart that hears his voice is sure to be made tender. These two things act and re-act the one upon the other.
Charles H. Spurgeon
O come, let us worship and bow down: let us kneel before the LORD our maker. For he is our God; “For he is our God.” Oh, that is the sweetest of it all, — “he is our God.” Let lords and lands have what masters they will, let us obey and worship our own God still.
Charles H. Spurgeon
And we are the people of his pasture, and the sheep of his hand. He is the shepherd, leading, feeding, protecting, guarding us every day.
Charles H. Spurgeon
To day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your heart, as in the provocation, and as in the day of temptation in the wilderness: when your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my work. Forty years long was I grieved with this generation. Was not that enough? Is there any need to grieve him again. Think with sympathy of what God endured from one generation, and let not another generation...
