Introduction

PSALM 117

Psalms 117:1; Psalms 117:2. This may be regarded as a doxology, suitable to be appended to any Psalm of similar character, and prophetical of the prevalence of God's grace in the world, in which aspect Paul quotes it (Psalms 117:2- :; compare Psalms 47:2; Psalms 66:8).

Verse 2

2. is great toward us—literally, "prevailed over" or "protected us."
