      • "Psalm 147 anticipates the ultimate expression of incarnation in Jesus by linking God's rule over the natural realm with God's salvation for Jerusalem."
    • Commentary, Psalm 147, James Limburg, Preaching This Week, WorkingPreacher.org, 2009.
      • "But the psalm concludes with a reference to the special privileges of Israel, the people who have received God's word in the form of "statutes and ordinances." In other words, Israel has been blessed with directives indicating how God's people ought to live, such as the ten commandments (Deuteronomy 5:6-21; see also Deuteronomy 4:5-8, 12-14)."
    • Commentary, Psalm 147:1-11, 20c, Wendell Frerichs, Preaching This Week, WorkingPreacher.org, 2009.
      • "...as this Psalm underscores, with privilege comes responsibility. God is not impressed with our accomplishments. What really count are obedience, faith, and hope."
    • Psalm 147 (Christmas 2 / Epiphany 5B), The Old Testament Readings: Weekly Comments on the Revised Common Lectionary, Theological Hall of the Uniting Church, Melbourne, Australia.
      • "...the psalm in its three sections focuses on Jerusalem in terms of the Lord building up the city concentrating on the themes of healing and restoration."
