“Praise ye the Lord. Praise God in his sanctuary: praise him in the firmament of his power.”
Praise the Lord! Praise God in his sanctuary; praise him in his mighty firmament. The opening of the final psalm and final doxology invokes praise in the sanctuary (God's dwelling place) and in the firmament (the created cosmos). The location of praise encompasses both the temple and creation itself; all space becomes sacred space for worship. This verse establishes that the final psalms constitute a cosmic call to worship.
