Contextual Overview

⁴⁰ How oft dyd they prouoke hym in the wildernes: & greeued hym in the desert? ⁴¹ They turned backe and tempted the Lorde: and prescribed boundes to the most holy [God] of Israel. ⁴² They thought not of his hande: in the day when he redeemed them from the enemie. ⁴³ Howe he had wrought his miracles in Egypt: and his wonders in the fielde of Zoan. ⁴⁴ For he turned into blood their riuers & fluddes: so that they might not drinke. ⁴⁵ He sent amongst them all kind of flyes who dyd eate them: and frogges who destroyed them. ⁴⁶ He gaue their fruites vnto the caterpiller: & their labour to the grashopper. ⁴⁷ He destroyed their vines with hayle stones: and their wilde figge trees with the harde frost. ⁴⁸ He smote their cattell also with haylestones: and their flockes with thunder boltes. ⁴⁹ He cast vpon them the rage of his furie, anger, disdayne, and trouble: by sending foorth euill angels amongst them.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And he brought them to the border of his sanctuary,.... Of the land of Canaan, which the Lord had sanctified, and set apart for them; and of Jerusalem, the holy city, the city of the great God, and of the temple where his residence was to be; so the Targum,

"to the border of the place of the house of his sanctuary:''

even to this mountain, which his right hand purchased; the mount Moriah, on which the temple was built; this psalm being composed, as Aben Ezra and Kimchi think, after it was made known to David, by the prophet Gad, the place where the temple should be built; namely, on the very mountain, on part of which David had his palace; and this was obtained and possessed, not by the power nor through the merits of the Israelites, but through the power and goodness of God; see Psalms 44:3.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

And he brought them to the border of his sanctuary - The Septuagint and the Latin Vulgate render this, “to the mountain of his holiness”; that is, his holy mountain. But the reference is rather to the whole land of Canaan. He brought them to the borders of that land - the land of promise - the holy land. They who came out from Egypt did not indeed enter that land, except Caleb and Joshua, but they were conveyed to its borders before all of them fell. It was true also that the people - the Hebrew people - came to the promised land, and secured its possession.

Even to this mountain - Mount Zion, for the object of the psalm was to show that the worship of God was properly celebrated there. See Psalms 78:68. The meaning is not that the people who came out of Egypt actually inherited that mountain, but that their descendants - the people of God - had been put in possession of it.

Which his right hand had purchased - Had procured, or obtained possession of. That is, he had secured it by his power.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Psalms 78:54. The border of his sanctuary — קדשו kodsho, "of his holy place," that is, the land of Canaan, called afterwards the mountain which his right hand had purchased; because it was a mountainous country, widely differing from Egypt, which was a long, continued, and almost perfect level.
