Notes

Psalms 102:15–16

When the Lord arises (Psalm 102:13), the nations will tremble with fear because they will see his glory (see Psalm 8:1; 19:1–4a; 24:7). Rebuilding Zion and the temple shows God's glory and fulfills this promise. An even greater fulfillment will come with the New Jerusalem (Revelation 21).

Psalms 102:12–17

The topic changes from the psalmist’s troubles to the Lord’s glory. A vision of the Lord’s compassionate kingship gives him confidence in Zion’s future.

Psalms 102:1–28

A weak and suffering person prays for the Lord's mercy on Jerusalem and for his presence with its people.
