Psalm 98
Dominus regnavit. The reign of the Lord in Sion: that is, of Christ in his church.
1A psalm for David himself. The Lord hath reigned, let the people be angry: he that sitteth on the cherubims: let the earth be moved.2The Lord is great in Sion, and high above all people.3Let them give praise to thy great name: for it is terrible and holy:4And the king's honour loveth judgment. Thou hast prepared directions: thou hast done judgment and justice in Jacob.5Exalt ye the Lord our God, and adore his footstool, for it is holy.6Moses and Aaron among his priests: and Samuel among them that call upon his name. They called upon the Lord, and he heard them:7He spoke to them in the pillar of the cloud. They kept his testimonies, and the commandment which he gave them.8Thou didst hear them, O Lord our God: thou wast a merciful God to them, and taking vengeance on all their inventions.9Exalt ye the Lord our God, and adore at his holy mountain: for the Lord our God is holy. [6] "Moses and Aaron among his priests": By this it is evident, that Moses also was a priest, and indeed the chief priest, inasmuch as he consecrated Aaron, and offered sacrifice for him. Lev. 8. So that his pre-eminence over Aaron makes nothing for lay church headship.
