7 He spake unto them in the cloudy pillar: they kept his testimonies, and the ordinance that he gave them.
7 He spoke to them from the pillar of cloud; they kept his statutes and the decrees he gave them.
7 In the pillar of the cloud he spoke to them; they kept his testimonies and the statute that he gave them.
7 He spoke from the pillar of cloud. And they did what he said; they kept the law he gave them.
7 He spoke to them in the cloudy pillar; They kept His testimonies and the ordinance He gave them.
7 He spoke to Israel from the pillar of cloud, and they followed the laws and decrees he gave them.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Psalm 99:7
Commentary on Psalm 99:6-9
(Read Psalm 99:6-9)
The happiness of Israel is made out by referring to the most useful governors of that people. They in every thing made God's word and law their rule, knowing that they could not else expect that their prayers should be answered. They all wonderfully prevailed with God in prayer; miracles were wrought at their request. They pleaded for the people, and obtained answers of peace. Our Prophet and High Priest, of infinitely greater dignity than Moses, Aaron, or Samuel, has received and declared to us the will of the Father. Let us not only exalt the Lord with our lips, but give him the throne in our heart; and while we worship him upon his mercy-seat, let us never forget that he is holy.
