Commentary on Psalms 48:14

Theological / Devotional

This God. The God who has taken up His abode in the city and has defended it against the enemy.

Unto death. God will be our guide all through life; He will accompany us to the very end. If the Christian has this assurance, he need have no fear. The Shepherd will lead His flock on into eternity (see Ps. 23:6).

There is some question as to whether the Hebrew phrase ‘al–muth is correctly rendered “unto death.” The word may be a musical term (cf. Muth-labben, Ps. 9, superscription; see pp. 628, 651). The LXX reads, “forever.”
