Tafsiran/Catatan -- Catatan Kata/Frasa (per Ayat)

Poole: Psa 95:4 - In his hand // The deep places // The strength of the hills

In his hand under his government.

The deep places those parts which are far out of men’ s sight and reach, and much more those that are at men’ s disposal.

The strength of the hills the strongest or highest mountains are under his feet, and at his disposal. The sense of the verse is, All the parts of the earth, whether high or low, are subject to his power and providence, and therefore it is not strange if all the nations of the earth be brought to the acknowledgment of him, and if the Gentiles receive his gospel.

Gill: Psa 95:4 - In his hand are the deep places of the earth // the strength of the hills is his also

In his hand are the deep places of the earth,.... The "penetrals" ^c of it; not only what are penetrated by men, the minerals that are in it; but what are of such deep recess as to be penetrated only by the Lord himself; these are in the hands and power of Christ, which he can search into, discover, and dispose of; these are the foundations of the earth, which cannot be searched out beneath by men, Jer 31:37,

the strength of the hills is his also; or, "the wearinesses" ^d of them, the tops ^e of them, which make a man weary to go up unto, they are so high; the Targum is,

"the strengths of the height of the hills;''

which takes in both ideas, both the height and strength of them. The hills, that are both high and strong, are set fast by his power, and are at his command; and bow and tremble before him, whom men ought to worship.
