Contextual Overview
One of Asaph's songs.
The Lord God Most Powerful has spoken. He calls to everyone on earth, from where the sun rises to where it sets. 2 God appeared from Zion, the city of perfect beauty. 3 Our God is coming and will not keep quiet. Fire burns in front of him. There is a great storm around him. 4 He tells the sky and the earth to be witnesses as he judges his people. 5 He says, "My followers, gather around me. Come, my worshipers, who made an agreement with me." 6 God is the judge, and the skies tell how fair he is. SelahBible Verse Review

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Gather my saints together unto me,.... These words are spoken by Christ to the heavens and the earth; that is, to the angels, the ministers of the Gospel, to gather in, by the ministry of the word, his elect ones among the Gentiles; see Matthew 24:30; called his "saints", who had an interest in his favour and lovingkindness, and were sanctified or set apart for his service and glory;
those that have made a covenant with me by sacrifice; or, "who have made my covenant by, or on sacrifice" s; the covenant of grace, which was made with Christ from everlasting, and which was confirmed by his blood and sacrifice; this his people may be said to make with God in him, he being their head, surety, and representative: now these covenant ones he will have gathered in to himself by the effectual calling, which is usually done by the ministry of the word; for this is not to be understood of the gathering of all nations to him, before him as a Judge; but of his special people to him as a Saviour, the "Shiloh", to whom the gathering of the people was to be, Genesis 49:10.
s So Pagninus.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Gather my saints together unto me - This is an address to the messengers employed for assembling those who are to be judged. Similar language is used by the Saviour Matthew 24:31 : âAnd he (the Son of Man) shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.â The idea is, that God will bring them, or assemble them together. All this is language derived froth the notion of a universal judgment, âas ifâ the scattered people of God were thus gathered together by special messengers sent out for this purpose. The word âsaintsâ here refers to those who are truly his people. The object - the purpose - of the judgment is to assemble in heaven those who are sincerely his friends; or, as the Saviour expresses it Matthew 24:31, his âelect.â Yet in order to this, or in order to determine who âareâ his true people, there will be a larger gathering - an assembling of all the dwellers on the earth.
Those that have made a covenant with me by sacrifice - Exodus 24:6-7. Compare the notes at Hebrews 9:19-22. The idea here is, that they are the professed people of God; that they have entered into a solemn covenant-relation to him, or have bound themselves in the most solemn manner to be his; that they have done this in connection with the sacrifices which accompany their worship; that they have brought their sacrifices or bloody offerings as a pledge that they mean to be his, and will be his. Over these solemn sacrifices made to him, they have bound themselves to be the Lordâs; and the purpose of the judgment now is, to determine whether this was sincere, and whether they have been faithful to their vows. As applied to professed believers under the Christian system, the âideaâ here presented would be, that the vow to be the Lordâs has been made over the body and blood of the Redeemer once offered as a sacrifice, and that by partaking of the memorials of that sacrifice they have entered into a solemn âcovenantâ to be his. Nothing more solemn can be conceived than a âcovenantâ or pledge entered into in such a manner; and yet nothing is more painfully certain than that the process of a judgment will be necessary to determine in what cases it is genuine, for the mere outward act, no matter how solemn, does not of necessity decide the question whether he who performs it will enter into heaven.
