Praise ye the LORD
Psalms 146:1
146:1 Praise ye the LORD. Each of the last five psalms (146–150) both begins and ends with “Praise ye the LORD”—i.e., “Hallelujah.” They comprise sort of a “Hallelujah Chorus,” a grand epilogue to the five books, each of which also ends in a grand doxology. In view of the fact that “Hallelujah” occurs only four times in the New Testament, all of which are in the setting of the victorious return of Christ and the marriage supper of the Lamb (Revelation 19:1,3,4,6), perhaps these Hallelujah psalms will be sung at the great gathering of “the general assembly and church of the firstborn” (Hebrews 12:23) at His throne in heaven.
