Study note
Setting — The psalmist continues a declaration following the previous verse, shifting focus to the purpose of proclaiming God's mighty acts and kingdom splendor to humanity.
The words — הוֹדִיעַ (ho.Di.a') translates literally to "to make known," and מַלְכוּתוֹ (mal.khu.T/o) means "His kingdom."
The thread — The theme of proclaiming God's deeds and kingdom appears in Psalms 105:1 and 98:1, which command making known His deeds and singing for His wonders, while Revelation 12:10 announces the arrival of God's power and kingdom.
Why it lands — The text directs the reader to communicate God's mighty acts and kingdom splendor, requiring active acknowledgment and declaration of these realities.
