Does “unto the end of the earth” (verse 9) mean the time of the end of the age? Is there a suggestion (verse 8) that the ceasing of wars will result from desolation?
“The Lord of Hosts” (verses y and 11). Therefore all the hosts of which He is Lord are also with us. “ They that be with us are more than they which be with them.” “ The God of Jacob” (verses 7 and 11) the suggestion in School R.C. is the Scala Grande, and this explains why God of Jacob is joined with “Lord of Hosts!” The same idea in both, “Jacob” perhaps more internally.
Psalm 47
O CLAP your hands, all ye people; shout unto God with the voice of triumph.
2 For the Lord most high is terrible; he is a great King over all the earth.
3 He shall subdue the people under us, and the nations under our feet.
4 He shall choose our inheritance for us, the excellency of Jacob whom he loved. Selah.
Selah . With a merry noise (prayer, etc.).
5 God is gone up with a shout, the Lord with the sound of a trumpet.
6 Sing praises to God, sing praises: sing praises unto our King, sing praises.
