1. The announcement of God's earthly reign 97:1
hide text
How do we know that the psalmist was describing a future reign of God and not His eternal reign? The marginal translation, "has assumed kingship,"captures the aspect of God's reign that this psalm presents. God's assumption of worldwide dominion, when Jesus Christ returns, will provide occasion for the whole planet to rejoice as never before.
