In the ancient Near Eastern context, a name was more than a label; it encapsulated the essence of the person. God's name is revered and represents His holiness and power. In <a href="/exodus/3-14.htm">Exodus 3:14</a>, God reveals His name as "I AM," signifying His eternal existence and unchanging nature. The invocation of God's name in worship and prayer is a central theme throughout the Psalms, emphasizing His sovereignty and the relationship between God and His people.<p><b>like Your praise,</b><br>The comparison of God's name to His praise suggests that both are vast and far-reaching. Praise in the biblical sense is not just verbal acknowledgment but a lifestyle of worship and obedience. The Psalms frequently call for all creation to praise God, as seen in <a href="/psalms/150.htm">Psalm 150</a>. This phrase underscores the idea that God's renown and the worship due to Him are inseparable and expansive.<p><b>reaches to the ends of the earth;</b><br>This phrase highlights the universal scope of God's influence and the call for all nations to recognize His sovereignty. It reflects the biblical theme of God's dominion over all creation, as seen in <a href="/psalms/24.htm">Psalm 24:1</a>, "The earth is the LORD's, and everything in it." The phrase also anticipates the Great Commission in <a href="/matthew/28-19.htm">Matthew 28:19</a>, where Jesus commands His disciples to make disciples of all nations, indicating the global reach of God's kingdom.<p><b>Your right hand</b><br>In biblical symbolism, the right hand represents power, authority, and action. It is often associated with God's deliverance and protection, as seen in <a href="/exodus/15-6.htm">Exodus 15:6</a>, "Your right hand, O LORD, was majestic in power." The right hand signifies God's active involvement in the world and His ability to execute justice and salvation.<p><b>is full of righteousness.</b><br>Righteousness in the biblical context refers to God's moral perfection and His commitment to justice and truth. It is a key attribute of God's character, as seen in <a href="/psalms/11-7.htm">Psalm 11:7</a>, "For the LORD is righteous, He loves justice." This phrase assures believers of God's just rule and His faithfulness to His covenant promises. It also points to the ultimate fulfillment of righteousness in Jesus Christ, who embodies God's righteousness and offers it to humanity through faith, as articulated in <a href="/romans/3-22.htm">Romans 3:22</a>.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/g/god.htm">God</a></b><br>The central figure in this verse, whose name and praise are exalted.<br><br>2. <b><a href="/topical/z/zion.htm">Zion</a></b><br>While not mentioned directly in this verse, <a href="/bsb/psalms/48.htm">Psalm 48</a> is a song of Zion, celebrating God's presence and protection over Jerusalem.<br><br>3. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_earth.htm">The Earth</a></b><br>Represents the scope of God's renown and righteousness, extending globally.<br><br>4. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_right_hand_of_god.htm">The Right Hand of God</a></b><br>Symbolizes God's power and authority, often associated with His acts of salvation and justice.<br><br>5. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_psalmist.htm">The Psalmist</a></b><br>Traditionally attributed to the sons of Korah, who composed this psalm as a song of praise.<div class="vheading2">Teaching Points</div><b><a href="/topical/t/the_universality_of_god's_name_and_praise.htm">The Universality of God's Name and Praise</a></b><br>God's name and praise are not confined to a single location or people but are meant to be recognized and revered worldwide.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/t/the_righteousness_of_god's_right_hand.htm">The Righteousness of God's Right Hand</a></b><br>God's actions are characterized by righteousness, and His power is always exercised in justice and truth.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/t/the_call_to_spread_god's_renown.htm">The Call to Spread God's Renown</a></b><br>Believers are called to participate in making God's name known to the ends of the earth through evangelism and righteous living.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/t/the_assurance_of_god's_sovereign_rule.htm">The Assurance of God's Sovereign Rule</a></b><br>The imagery of God's right hand assures us of His control and righteous governance over all creation.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/w/worship_as_a_response_to_god's_greatness.htm">Worship as a Response to God's Greatness</a></b><br>Our response to the knowledge of God's name and righteousness should be one of worship and adoration, acknowledging His supreme authority.<div class="vheading2">Lists and Questions</div><a href="/top10/lessons_from_psalm_48.htm">Top 10 Lessons from Psalm 48</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/how_is_flock_management_biblical.htm">Is God inherently self-centered?</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/how_is_eternal_praise_for_a_king_logical.htm">How does Psalm 45's reference to ongoing, eternal praise for a mortal king (Psalm 45:17) make sense in a literal or historical context?</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/does_psalm_7_8_contradict_romans_3_10.htm">If Psalm 7:8 claims personal righteousness, does this contradict the broader biblical teaching of universal sinfulness (e.g., Romans 3:10)?</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/what_does_the_bible_say_about_angels.htm">What does the Bible say about angels?</a><a name="commentary" id="commentary"></a><div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/ellicott/psalms/48.htm">Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers</a></div>(10) <span class= "bld">According to thy name . . .</span>--"Name" here has plainly the meaning we give it in the phrase, "name and fame."
