Clarke's Bible Commentary - Psalms 103:5
Verse 5. hynwkm l[ Åra dsy yasad erets al mechonepha, d[w µlw[ fwmt lb bal tammot olam vaed. "Laying the earth upon its foundations, That it should not be shaken for evermore." This image Bishop Lowth thinks evidently taken from the tabernacle, which was so laid upon its foundations that nothing could move it, and the dispensation to which it was attached, till the end purposed by the secret counsel of God was accomplished: and thus the earth is established, till the end of its creation shall be fully answered; and then it and its works shall be burnt up. On the above ground, the stability of the sanctuary and the stability of the earth are sometimes mentioned in the same words.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 1-9 - Every object we behold calls on us to bless and praise the Lord, who is great. His eternal power and Godhead are clearly shown by the thing which he hath made. God is light, and in him is no darkness at all. The Lord Jesus, the Son of his love, is the Light of the world.
