Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 1, 2 - The psalmist seeks to give unto God the glory due to his name. Ho bright this glory shines even in this lower world! He is ours, for he made us, protects us, and takes special care of us. The birth, life preaching, miracles, suffering, death, resurrection, and ascension of Jesus are known through the world. No name is so universal, no powe and influence so generally felt, as those of the Saviour of mankind But how much brighter it shines in the upper world! We, on this earth only hear God's excellent name, and praise that; the angels and blesse spirits above, see his glory, and praise that; yet he is exalted fa above even their blessing and praise. Sometimes the grace of God appears wonderfully in young children. Sometimes the power of God brings to pass great things in his church, by very weak and unlikel instruments, that the excellency of the power might the more evidentl appear to be of God, and not of man. This he does, because of his enemies, that he may put them to silence.
