We must worship at God’s footstool, at his ark, which was as the footstool to the mercy-seat between the cherubim or we must cast ourselves down upon the pavement of his courts. #Psalms99

Moses, as well as Aaron, is said to be among God’s priests, for he executed the priest's office till Aaron was settled in it and he consecrated Aaron and his sons therefore the Jews call him the priest of the priests. #Psalms99

None of all the nations of the earth could produce three such men as these (Moses, Aaron, Samuel), that had such an intercourse with Heaven, and whom God knew by name, Ex 33:17. #Psalms99

Moses did all according to the pattern shown him. It is often repeated, “According to all that God commanded Moses, so did he.” Aaron and Samuel did likewise. #Psalms99

Moses, Aaron, and Samuel were the greatest men and most honorable that were most eminent for keeping God's testimonies and conforming to the rule of his word. #Psalms99

God's gracious acceptance of Moses, Aaron, and Samuel: He answered them, and granted them the things which they called upon him for. #Psalms99

God often spoke to Samuel from his childhood the word of the Lord came to him, and, probably, sometimes he spoke to him by a bright cloud overshadowing him: however, to Moses and Aaron he often spoke out of the famous cloudy pillar, Exodus 16:10; Numbers 12:5. #Psalms99

Moses stood in the gap, and Aaron between the living and the dead and, when Israel was in distress, Samuel cried unto the Lord for them, 1 Sam 7:9. #Psalms99

"Exalt the Lord our God, on account of what he has done for us formerly, as well as of late, and worship at his holy hill of Zion, on which he has now set his temple and will shortly set his King (Ps 2:6), the former a type of the latter there.” #Psalms99

It is with good reason that many sing this psalm very frequently in their religious assemblies, for it is very proper both to express and to excite pious and devout affections towards God. #Psalms100

We are furnished with matter for praise. We must praise him, considering his being and relation to us and his mercy and truth. #Psalms100

When all nations shall be discipled, and the gospel preached to every creature, then this summons for all the earth the praise will be fully answered to. #Psalms100

In all acts of religious worship, whether in secret or in our families, we come into God's presence, and serve him but it is in public worship especially that we enter into his gates and into his courts. #Psalms100

In gospel-times there should be special occasion for joy and it prescribes this as a rule of worship: Let God be served with gladness. #Psalms100

Matthew Henry (@matthew_henry_1) 's Twitter Profile Photo

By holy joy we do really serve God it is an honour to him to rejoice in him and we ought to serve him with holy joy. #Psalms100
