Psalms 72:16 — KJV
Corn. Grain (see on Ps. 65:9).
Top of the mountains. Many cultivated fields in Palestine were terraced up to the tops of the mountains.
Like Lebanon. A picture of the fields of grain on the high elevations, rustling in the breeze like the swaying cedars on Mt. Lebanon (see on Ps. 29:5).
They of the city Prosperity will abound everywhere, in the open places of the mountains and in cities.
Like grass.. Compare the picture of prosperity in Solomon’s time (1 Kings 4:20).
