Psalms 8:9 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 8:9

O Lord our Lord, how excellent [is] thy name in all the earth!
The psalm ends with the same words with which it begins; which shows that the sense of this, with which the psalmist was affected, continued with him, and doubtless increased, after such a confirmation of it, by the instances he was led to take notice of. (See Gill on Psalms 8:1).

Taken from John Gill's Exposition of the Bible

Psalms 8:9 In-Context

7 all sheep and oxen, and also the beasts of the field,
8 the birds of the air, and the fish of the sea, whatever passes along the paths of the seas.
9 O Lord, our Sovereign, how majestic is your name in all the earth!
