It reflects the Israelites' dependence on God for deliverance from their enemies and their circumstances. The use of "LORD" (Yahweh) emphasizes the covenant relationship between God and Israel. This cry for salvation can be seen as a type of Christ, who is the ultimate Savior. In the New Testament, Jesus is often referred to as the one who saves (<a href="/matthew/1-21.htm">Matthew 1:21</a>).<p><b>and gather us from the nations</b><br>This phrase speaks to the historical context of the Babylonian exile, where the Israelites were scattered among various nations. The gathering from the nations is a prophetic theme found in the prophets, such as <a href="/isaiah/11-12.htm">Isaiah 11:12</a> and <a href="/ezekiel/11-17.htm">Ezekiel 11:17</a>, where God promises to regather His people. This also foreshadows the eschatological gathering of believers from all nations, as seen in <a href="/revelation/7-9.htm">Revelation 7:9</a>.<p><b>that we may give thanks to Your holy name</b><br>Giving thanks to God's holy name is an act of worship and acknowledgment of His character and deeds. The "holy name" signifies God's unique and sacred identity. In biblical culture, a name represents the essence of a person, and God's name is a reflection of His holiness and faithfulness. This thanksgiving is a response to God's acts of salvation and mercy.<p><b>that we may glory in Your praise</b><br>To glory in God's praise means to take pride and find joy in worshiping Him. This reflects a heart transformed by God's grace, where the ultimate purpose is to glorify God. The concept of glory is central to the Bible, as seen in passages like <a href="/1_corinthians/10-31.htm">1 Corinthians 10:31</a>, where believers are called to do everything for the glory of God. This phrase encapsulates the ultimate goal of redemption: to bring glory to God through the praise of His people.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_lord.htm">The LORD (Yahweh)</a></b><br>The covenant-keeping God of Israel, who is called upon for salvation and gathering.<br><br>2. <b><a href="/topical/i/israelites.htm">Israelites</a></b><br>The people of God who are seeking deliverance and restoration from their dispersion among the nations.<br><br>3. <b><a href="/topical/n/nations.htm">Nations (Gentiles)</a></b><br>The foreign lands where the Israelites have been scattered due to their disobedience and exile.<br><br>4. <b><a href="/topical/e/exile.htm">Exile</a></b><br>The historical context of Israel's dispersion, likely referring to the Babylonian exile, where they longed for return and restoration.<br><br>5. <b><a href="/topical/h/holy_name.htm">Holy Name</a></b><br>The sacred and revered name of God, which the Israelites desire to honor through their worship and thanksgiving.<div class="vheading2">Teaching Points</div><b><a href="/topical/g/god's_faithfulness_to_restore.htm">God's Faithfulness to Restore</a></b><br>Despite Israel's disobedience, God remains faithful to His promises.

"It can scarcely be doubted," as Dean Johnson well observes, "that the words of ver. 47 refer to deliverance from the Babylonish captivity," which was the only one that involved the dispersion of the whole people, and the suspension of the liturgical offering of thanks and praise. <span class="cmt_sub_title">Verse 47.</span> - <span class="cmt_word">Save us, O Lord our God.</span> Contrast with this the "remember me" of ver. 4. The review of the national history has quickened the psalmist's sympathies and widened them. Previously he prayed only for himself. Now it will not content him unless the people generally are "saved." <span class="cmt_word">And gather us from among the heathen.</span> (On the wide dispersion of the Israelites at the time of the Babylonian captivity, see the comment on ver. 27.) <span class="cmt_word">To give thanks unto thy holy Name, and to triumph in thy praise.</span> This is spoken of as the consequence of the gathering together. Dispersion could not, of course, prevent the rendering of praise and thanks by individual Israelites (<a href="/daniel/6-10.htm">Daniel 6:10</a>); but it had stopped the united liturgical expression of them. On the restoration of the Israelites to their own land, this was resumed (<a href="/ezra/3-2.htm">Ezra 3:2-11</a>). <span class="p"><br /><br /></span><span class="versiontext"><a href="/commentaries/psalms/106-47.htm">Parallel Commentaries ...</a></span><span class="p"><br /><br /><br /></span><a name="lexicon" id="lexicon"></a><div class="vheading">Hebrew</div><span class="word">Save us,</span><br /><span class="heb">הוֹשִׁיעֵ֨נוּ ׀</span> <span class="translit">(hō·wō·šî·‘ê·nū)</span><br /><span class="parse">Verb -
