EXPLANATION

Verse 21. Earth, as long as the world shall endure. The psalmist (88:30,) expresses the duration of the reign of the Messias nearly in the same terms. See Baruch 1:2. Calmet.—If the Jews had continued faithful to God, and had submitted to the Messias, they might never have been banished from their country. Bible.
