Adam Clarke's Bible Commentary Verse 4. He is to be feared above all gods. ] I think the two clauses of this verse should be read thus: - Jehovah is great, and greatly to be praised.
Elohim is to be feared above all.
I doubt whether the word µyhla Elohim is ever, by fair construction, applied to false gods or idols. The contracted form in the following verse appears to have this meaning.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 1-9 - When Christ finished his work on earth, and was received into his glor in heaven, the church began to sing a new song unto him, and to bles his name. His apostles and evangelists showed forth his salvation amon the heathen, his wonders among all people. All the earth is her summoned to worship the Lord. We must worship him in the beauty of holiness, as God in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself Glorious things are said of him, both as motives to praise and matte of praise.
