Commentary on Psalms 89:37

Theological / Devotional

As the moon. See Ps. 72:5.

A faithful witness. Here probably the moon, as indicated by the parallelism of the clauses. As the moon is fixed, regular, and enduring, so God’s promises to David cannot fail.

With this verse the psalmist closes his praise of the attributes of God, on which the fulfillment of the promise depends.

Selah. See p. 629.
