<p>This Psalm might well express the sacred joy of the pilgrims on entering the holy city, where praise, as the religious as well as civil metropolis, is celebrated, and for whose prosperity, as representing the Church, prayer is offered.

|
<p><b>1, 2. Our feet shall stand</b>—literally, "are standing."
|
|
<p id="Ps122_2"><b>2. gates</b>—(Compare <a onclick="return mV('Psa',9,14);">Psa 9:14</a>; <a onclick="return mV('Psa',87,2);">87:2</a>).
|
|
<p id="Ps122_3"><b>3-5. compact together</b>—all parts united, as in David's time.
|
|
<p id="Ps122_4"><b>4. testimony</b>—If "unto" is supplied, this may denote the ark (<a onclick="return mV('Exd',25,'10-21');">Exd 25:10-21</a>); otherwise the <i>act of going</i> is denoted, called a <i>testimony</i> in allusion to the requisition (<a onclick="return mV('Deu',16,16);">Deu 16:16</a>), with which it was a compliance.
|
|
<p id="Ps122_5"><b>5. there are set thrones</b>—or, "do sit, thrones," used for the occupants, David's sons (<a onclick="return mV('2Sa',8,18);">2Sa 8:18</a>).
|
|
<p id="Ps122_6"><b>6, 7. Let peace</b>—including prosperity, everywhere prevail.
|
|
<p id="Ps122_8"><b>8, 9.</b> In the welfare of the city, as its civil, and especially the religious relations, was involved that of Israel.
|
|
<br><br><b>now</b>—as in <a onclick="return mV('Psa',115,2);">Psa 115:2</a>.
|
|
<p id="Ps122_9"><b>9.</b> Let me say—<b>house of...God</b>—in wider sense, the Church, whose welfare would be promoted by the good of Jerusalem.
