EXPLANATION

Verse 13. Sea. Hebrew “the right,” ( C). which here denotes the south, (Psalms 106:3. Menochius.) as Hermon may do the east, ( D.) with reference to Thabor, which lies to the west, though this seems unusual. Calmet. Bert.—The north, and so forth more probably refers to the limits of the promised land, from Libanus to the Indian or Mediterranean sea; and from Hermon, on the north-eastern part, to Thabor, on the west. Bible.—These two mountains were particularly fertile, and seemed to rejoice. Bert.—They “shall praise thy name,” ευφησουσι. Sym. Bible.
