1 FRCC Harp & Bwl Ministry The Bk f Psalms 1 Psalm 24: Lift up yur heads, yu gates; be lifted up, yu ancient drs, that the King f glry may cme in. 8 Wh is this King f glry? The LORD strng and mighty, the LORD mighty in battle. 9 Lift up yur heads, yu gates; lift them up, yu ancient drs, that the King f glry may cme in. 10 Wh is he, this King f glry? The LORD Almighty he is the King f glry. Frm Ntes n Psalms (2010 Editin), BY DR. THOMAS L. CONSTABLE ENTRY OF THE KING (24:7-10) 24:7, Lift up yur heads, yu gates; be lifted up, yu ancient drs, that the King f glry may cme in. Evidently David pictured in his mind the clsed gates f Jerusalem as thugh they were heads bwed. He called n these persnified gates t lift their heads s the great King culd enter. Nrmally peple bwed their heads as majesty passed, but in this figure the gates did the reverse. Lifting up the gates refers t making the gates higher, larger, s such a glrius Gd culd enter. 24:8, Wh is this King f glry? The LORD strng and mighty, the LORD mighty in battle. David explained that this glrius King was Yahweh in respnse t the questin f the persnified gates, and perhaps the peple. The Lrd is glrius because He is mniptent, as seen in His victry ver His enemies and His prvisin f salvatin. Israel's divine King was fully glrius because He was uncnquerable. The "hsts" picture the heavenly armies that accmpany and supprt Him. 24:9-10, Lift up yur heads, yu gates; lift them up, yu ancient drs, that the King f glry may cme in. 10 Wh is he, this King f glry? The LORD Almighty he is the King f glry. T underline the glry f Yahweh as the great King, David repeated the exhrtatin and the explanatin cntained in verses 7 and 8 respectively. These verses restate, in synnymus parallelism, the same thught, and all fur verses serve as a victry shut. "Hip, hip, hurray! Hip, hip, hurray!" Gd's peple shuld hnr and glrify the Lrd because He is the strngest f all Kings. We shuld realize that cmmunin with such a One requires purity in thught, wrd, and deed. This will be an apprpriate psalm t recite when the Lrd Jesus returns t earth t set up His kingdm fr 1,000 years. Frerunner Christian Church
2 FRCC Harp & Bwl Ministry The Bk f Psalms 2 "Psalms 22, 23, and 24 frm a trilgy. In Ps. 22 the gd Shepherd gives His life fr the sheep (Jn. 10:11); in Ps. 23 the great Shepherd, 'brught again frm the dead... thrugh the bld f the everlasting cvenant' (Heb. 13:20), tenderly cares fr His sheep; in Ps. 24 the chief Shepherd appears as King f glry t reward His sheep (1 Pet. 5:4)." 4 And when the Chief Shepherd appears, yu will receive the crwn f glry that will never fade away. (1 Pet. 5:4) "What a wnderful trilgy we have here in these three Psalms. The Psalm f the Crss, 22; the Psalm f the crk, the Shepherd's crk, 23; the Psalm f the crwn, 24." The Treasury f David Bible Cmmentary), BY CHARLES SPURGEON Verse 7. These last verses reveal t us the great representative man, wh answered t the full character laid dwn, and therefre by his wn right ascended the hly hill f Zin. Our Lrd Jesus Christ culd ascend int the hill f the Lrd because his hands were clean and his heart was pure, and if we by faith in him are cnfrmed t his image we shall enter t. We have here a picture f ur Lrd's glrius ascent. We see him rising frm amidst the little grup upn Olivet, and as the clud receives him, angels reverently escrt him t the gates f heaven. The ancient gates f the eternal temple are persnified and addressed in sng by the attending chrts f rejicing spirits. "L his triumphal charit waits, And angels chant the slemn lay. Lift up yur heads, ye heavenly gates; Ye everlasting drs, give way." They are called upn "t lift up their heads," as thugh with all their glry they were nt great enugh fr the All glrius King. Let all things d their utmst t hnur s great a Prince; let the highest heaven put n unusual lftiness in hnur f the King f Glry. He wh, fresh frm the crss and the tmb, nw rides thrugh the gates f the New Jerusalem is higher than the heavens; great and everlasting as they are, thse gates f pearl are all unwrthy f him befre whm the heavens are nt pure, and wh charges his angels with flly. Lift up yur heads, O ye gates. Be ye lift up, ye everlasting drs; and the King f glry shall cme in. Sme interpret this f the drs f ur heart, accrding t that Revelatin 3:20,"Behld, I stand at the dr, and knck: if any man hear my vice, and pen the dr, I will cme in t him. In the gspel histry, we find that Christ had a furfld entertainment amng men. Sme received him int huse, nt int heart, as Simn the Pharisee Luke 7:44, wh gave him n kiss nr water t his feet; sme int heart, but nt int huse, as the faithful centurin Mt 8:8, esteeming himself unwrthy that Christ shuld cme under his rf; sme neither int huse nr heart, as the graceless Gergesites Matthew 8:34; sme bth int huse and heart, as Lazarus, Mary, Martha. Jhn 3:15 Luke 10:38. Nw that Christ may dwell in ur hearts by faith, and that ur bdies may be temples f his Hly Spirit, we must as ur prphet exhrts here, lift up ur suls, that is, in the wrds f St. Paul Clssians 3:2, ur affectins must be set n things which are abve, and nt n things which are n earth: if we desire t lift up ur hearts unt Christ's verity, we may nt lift them up unt the wrld's vanity; that is, we must nt fasten ur lve t much upn the things f this life, but n thse Frerunner Christian Church
3 FRCC Harp & Bwl Ministry The Bk f Psalms 3 pleasures at Gd's right hand which are evermre; that as we have brne the image f the first Adam, wh was earthly, s we shuld bear the image f the secnd Adam, which is heavenly. 1 Crinthians 15:49. Christ is gne t heaven as a victr; leading sin, Satan, death, hell, and all his enemies, in triumph at his charit wheels. He has nt nly vercme his enemies fr himself, but fr all his peple, whm he will make cnquerrs, yea, "mre than cnquerrs." As he has vercme, s shall they als vercme; and as he has gne t heaven a victr, they shall fllw in triumph. He is in heaven as a Saviur. When he came frm heaven it was in the character f a Saviur; when n earth he btained eternal salvatin; in heaven he lives as a Saviur; when he cmes again frm heaven he will cme as a Saviur; and when he will return, he will return as a Saviur. He is als gne t heaven as the rightful heir. He is nt gne t heaven as a sjurner, but as "the heir f all things." He is the heir f heavenly glry and happiness, and believers are "heirs f Gd, and jint heirs with Christ." Verse 7-8. Christ being nw arrived at heaven's drs, thse heavenly spirits that accmpanied him began t say, Lift up yur heads, O ye gates; and be ye lift up, ye everlasting drs; and the King f glry shall cme in! t whm sme f the angels that were within, nt ignrant f his persn, but admiring his majesty and glry, said again, Wh is the King f glry? and then they answered The Lrd strng and mighty, the Lrd mighty in battle, and thereupn thse twelve gates f the hly city, f New Jerusalem, pened f their wn accrd, and Jesus Christ with all his ministering spirits entered in. O my sul, hw shuld this heighten thy jy and enlarge thy cmfrts, in that Christ is nw received up int glry? Every sight f Christ is glrius, and in every sight thu shuldest wait n the Lrd Jesus Christ fr sme glrius manifestatins f himself. Cme, live up t the rate f this great mystery; view Christ as entering int glry, and thu wilt find the same sparkle f glry n thy heart. O! this sight is a transfrming sight: "We all, with pen face behlding as in a glass the glry f the Lrd, are changed int the same image frm glry t glry, even as by the Spirit f the Lrd." 2 Crinthians 3:18 Verse 7-8. Ye that are thus the living temples f the Lrd, and have already entertained his sanctifying Spirit int yu, d yu lift up yur hearts in the use f hly rdinances thrugh faith, in jyful desires and assured expectatin f him. Yea, be yu abundantly lift up by faith in the use f hly means wh are the everlasting habitatin f an everlasting Gd, with a jyful and assured welcme f him. Fr s shall yu invite and undubtedly entertain the high and mighty Ptentate the Lrd Christ int yur suls, with the glrius manifestatin and ravishing peratin f his lve, benefits, and graces. Verse Why is the sng repeated? Why are the everlasting gates invited t lift up their heads a secnd time? We may nt pretend here, r in any place, t knw all the meaning f the divine Psalms. But what if the repetitin f the verse was meant t put us in mind that ur Saviur's ascensin will be repeated als? He will nt indeed die any mre; death can n mre have any dminin ver him; "there remaineth n mre sacrifice fr sin." Neither f curse can he rise again any mre. But as he will cme again at the end f the wrld, t judge the quick and the dead, s after that descent he will have t ascend again. And I say, this secnd ascensin may be signified by the psalmist, calling n the everlasting drs t lift up their heads a secnd time, and make way fr the King f glry. Nw bserve the answer made this secnd time, Wh is the King f glry? The Lrd strng and mighty, the Lrd mighty in battle. Lift up yur heads, O ye gates; even lift them up, ye everlasting drs; and the King f glry shall Frerunner Christian Church
4 FRCC Harp & Bwl Ministry The Bk f Psalms 4 cme in. Wh is this King f glry? The Lrd f hsts, he is the King f glry. Befre it was, the Lrd strng and mighty, the Lrd mighty in battle; nw it is The Lrd f hsts. Christ ascending the first time, t intercede fr us at his Father's right hand, is called The Lrd mighty in battle. But Christ, ascending the secnd time, after the wrld hath been judged, and the gd and bad separated fr ever, is called the Lrd f hsts. Why this difference in his divine titles? We may reverently take it, that it signifies t us the difference between his first and secnd cming dwn t earth, his first and secnd ascensin int heaven. As in ther respects his first cming was with great humility, s in this, that he came, in all appearance, alne. The angels were indeed waiting rund him, but nt visibly, nt in glry. "He trde the winepress alne, and f the peple there was nne with him." He wrestled with death, hell, and Satan, alne. Alne he rse frm the dead: alne, as far as man culd see, he went up t heaven. Thus he shwed himself "the Lrd mighty in battle," mighty in that single cmbat which he, as ur champin, ur David, victriusly maintained against ur great enemy. But when he shall cme dwn and g up the secnd time, he will shw himself "the Lrd f hsts." Instead f cming dwn alne in mysterius silence, as in his wnderful incarnatin, he will be fllwed by all the armies f heaven. "The Lrd my Gd will cme, and all his saints with him." "The Lrd cmeth with ten thusand f his saints." "The Sn f Man will cme in the glry f his Father, and all the hly angels with him." "Thusand thusands will stand arund him, and ten thusand times ten thusand will minister unt him." Verse Verse 8. The watchers at the gate hearing the sng lk ver the battlements and ask, Wh is this King f glry? A questin full f meaning and wrthy f the meditatins f eternity. Wh is he in persn, nature, character, ffice and wrk? What is his pedigree? What his rank and what his race? The answer given in a mighty wave f music is, The Lrd strng and mighty, the Lrd mighty in battle. We knw the might f Jesus by the battles which he has fught, the victries which he has wn ver sin, and death, and hell, and we clap ur hands as we see him leading captivity captive in the majesty f his strength. Oh fr a heart t sing his praises! Mighty her, be thu crwned fr ever King f kings and Lrd f lrds. Verse 9. Lift up yur heads, O ye gates; even lift them up, ye everlasting drs; and the King f glry shall cme in. The wrds are repeated with a pleasing variatin. There are times f deep earnest feeling when repetitins are nt vain but full f frce. Drs were ften taken frm their hinges when Easterners wuld shw welcme t a guest, and sme drs were drawn up and dwn like a prtcullis, and may pssibly have prtruded frm the tp; thus literally lifting up their heads. The picture is highly petical, and shws hw wide heaven's gate is set by the ascensin f ur Lrd. Blessed be Gd, the gates have never been shut since. The pened gates f heaven invite the weakest believer t enter. Dear reader, it is pssible that yu are saying, "I shall never enter int the heaven f Gd, fr I have neither Frerunner Christian Church

Fllw in his ftsteps, and repse upn his merit. He rides triumphantly int heaven, and yu shall ride there t if yu trust him. "But hw can I get the character described?" say yu. The Spirit f Gd will give yu that. He will create in yu a new heart and a right spirit. Faith in Jesus is the wrk f the Hly Spirit, and has all virtues wrapped up in it. Faith stands by the funtain filled with bld, and as she washes therein, clean hands and a pure heart, a hly sul and a truthful tngue are given t her. The clsing nte is inexpressibly grand. Jehvah f hsts, Lrd f men and angels, Lrd f the universe, Lrd f the wrlds, is the King f glry. All true glry is cncentrated upn the true Gd, fr all ther glry is but a passing pageant, the painted pmp f an hur. The ascended Saviur is here declared t be the Head and Crwn f the universe, the King f Glry. Our Immanuel is hymned in mst sublime strains. Jesus f Nazareth is Jehvah Sabath.
