Commentary on Psalms 66:3

Theological / Devotional

Terrible. God’s deliverances of the persecuted are terrible to the persecutors (see on Ps. 65:5; cf. Rev. 15:3).

Submit themselves. Heb. kachash, “to feign obedience,” “to cringe” (see Ps. 18:44). The submission referred to here is hollow, insincere, feigned; induced only by the show of God’s power. True submission of heart is induced by the revelation of God’s love.
