Commentary on Psalms 99:4

Theological / Devotional

The king’s strength. The first clause of v. 4 should probably be connected with the preceding thought and the passage rendered, “He is holy and strong, a King loving justice.” The king is evidently Jehovah (see v. 1). The essential strength of God’s character is in favor of justice (see Isa. 61:8).

Thou. Emphatic in the Hebrew, probably to show the contrast between the great King and earthly kings.
