(13) Now therefore, our God, we thank thee.--And now, our God, we are thanking thee, and praising (participles in the Hebrew). Modim, "thanking," occurs nowhere else, though the verb is common in other forms. Thy glorious name.--The name of thy glory: here only. (Comp. Isaiah 63:14, and Psalm 72:19.) David’s single sentence in 1 Chronicles 29:13 teaches that recognizing God’s sovereign generosity (“Now therefore”) leads a covenant people (“our God”) to unified gratitude (“we give You thanks”) and exaltation of His unmatched character (“we praise Your glorious name”). True worship springs from knowing who He is and acknowledging that every good gift already belongs to Him.Parallel Commentaries ...
