Psalm 72:19
βAnd blessed be his glorious name for ever: and let the whole earth be filled with his glory; Amen, and Amen.β
KJV
Read in Psalm 72Meaning
Within βDoxology and collection close,β verse 19 asks that God's glorious name fill the whole earth, making the psalm's final horizon doxological; this detail advances the unit's argument and should not be detached from the whole psalm.
Read carefully
Read Psalm 72:19 inside its literary unit and the movement of Psalm 72; its imagery and claims are constrained by that context.
Reflection
Respond to the verse's specific emphasis β asks that God's glorious name fill the whole earth, making the psalm's final horizon doxological β while reading it together with the surrounding lines of Psalm 72.
