On this verse

Draft selections — awaiting the founder’s edit.

(2.) To the ordinances of God: He had set his affections to the house of his God ( 1 Chron. xxix. 3 ); he took a great pleasure in public worship, and for that reason would pray for the good of Jerusalem. Then our concern for the public welfare is right when it is the effect of a sincere love to God's institutions and his faithful worshippers.

Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710puritan

Those that can do nothing else for the peace of Jerusalem can pray for it, which is something more than showing their good-will; it is the appointed way of fetching in mercy. The peace and welfare of the gospel church, particularly in our land, is to be earnestly desired and prayed for by every one of us.

Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710puritan

In singing this psalm we must have an eye to the gospel church, which is called the "Jerusalem that is from above." The Pleasures of Public Worship. A song of degrees of David. 1 I was glad when they said unto me, Let us go into the house of the L ORD .
