Psalms 95:3

Context

a great king who is superior to 4  all gods.

Psalms 136:2

Context

136:2 Give thanks to the God of gods,

for his loyal love endures.

1 tn Or “for.”

2 tn Heb “rocky cliff,” which is a metaphor of divine protection. See v. 2, where the Hebrew term צוּר (tsur) is translated “rocky summit.”

3 tn The rhetorical questions anticipate the answer, “No one.” In this way the psalmist indicates that the Lord is the only true God and reliable source of protection. See also Deut 32:39, where the Lord affirms that he is the only true God. Note as well the emphasis on his role as protector (Heb “rocky cliff,” צוּר, tsur) in Deut 32:4, 15, 17-18, 30.

4 tn Heb “above.”
