Psalms 83:18 — KJV
Men. Rather, “they,” in reference to the confederate nations.
Jehovah. See on Ex. 6:3.
The most high. The psalmist prays for the destruction or near destruction of Israel’s enemies, not in personal vindictiveness, but to show that Jehovah is the supreme ruler of the world. The purpose of judgment is that men may know God! On this sublime note the psalm closes.
