This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Call to the families of the peoples to worship God, the One, living, and glorious God. הָבוּ is repeated three times here as Psa 29:1-11, of which the whole strophe is an echo. Isaiah (ch. 60) sees them coming in with the gifts which they are admonished to bring with them into the courts of Jahve (in Chr. only: לְפָנָיו). Instead of בְּהַדְרַת קֹדֶשׁ here and in the chronicler, the lxx brings the courts (חצרת) in once more; but the dependence of the strophe upon Psa 29:1-11 furnishes a guarantee for the “holy attire,” similar to the wedding garment in the New Testament parable. Instead of מִפָּנָיו, Psa 96:9, the chronicler has מִלְּפָנָיו, just as he also alternates with both forms, 2Ch 32:7, cf. 1Ch 19:18.
