Adam Clarke's Bible Commentary Verse 4. Than the mountains of prey. ] This is an address to Mount Zion. Thou art more illustrious and excellent than all the mountains of prey, i.e., where wild beasts wander, and prey on those that are more helpless than themselves. Zion was the place where GOD dwelt; the other mountains were the abode of wild beasts.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 1-6 - Happy people are those who have their land filled with the knowledge of God! happy persons that have their hearts filled with that knowledge It is the glory and happiness of a people to have God among them by his ordinances. Wherein the enemies of the church deal proudly, it wil appear that God is above them. See the power of God's rebukes. With pleasure may Christians apply this to the advantages bestowed by the Redeemer.
