Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 1-6 - The heavens so declare the glory of God, and proclaim his wisdom power, and goodness, that all ungodly men are left without excuse. The speak themselves to be works of God's hands; for they must have Creator who is eternal, infinitely wise, powerful, and good. The counter-changing of day and night is a great proof of the power of God and calls us to observe, that, as in the kingdom of nature, so in tha of providence, he forms the light, and creates the darkness, Isa 45:7 and sets the one against the other. The sun in the firmament is a emblem of the Sun of righteousness, the Bridegroom of the church, an the Light of the world, diffusing Divine light and salvation by his gospel to the nations of the earth. He delights to bless his church which he has espoused to himself; and his course will be unwearied a that of the sun, till the whole earth is filled with his light an salvation. Let us pray for the time when he shall enlighten, cheer, an make fruitful every nation on earth, with the blessed salvation. The have no speech or language, so some read it, and yet their voice i heard. All people may hear these preachers speak in their own tongu the wonderful works of God. Let us give God the glory of all the comfort and benefit we have by the lights of heaven, still lookin above and beyond them to the Sun of righteousness.
