[only VG 754]	6(1). Sing to the Lord with a harp, with a harp, and the voice of a psalm With trumpets of metal, and the sound of a trumpet of horn 3. The trumpet of horn is a symbol of victory, for the Hebrews won victory over the cities by means of a trumpet of horn (Jdg 7.18-20). And Joab also was victorious over Absolom with a trumpet of horn. (2Sam 18.16). If so, then according to the apostle it may be said I have finished the race, I have kept the faith (2Tim 4.7), thus victorious with David’s trumpet of horn in receiving the sought-for kingdom of our Christ.

[= PG 12.1557]	8(1). The rivers shall clap their hands together 4. If the gifts of the Holy Spirit are said to be “rivers” as in [the text] Rivers of living waters will flow from His womb [koilias] (Jn 7.38), then it is fitting to say of those who are participants in those rivers that they are also rivers. And symbolically the [term] together is what they should all be: [that is,] that there be no division among them.

[=PG 12.1557]	98.5. and worship at the footstool of his feet. 2. The footstool of his feet refers to something like the flesh of the Christ, which may be worshiped because of the Christ; while Christ may be worshipped because of the Divine Word within Him.

[cf Pitra 2(2)b]	100.2. I will sing [a psalm] and I will be wise in blameless ways. When will you come to me? 2. The one saying to God, When will you come to me, recounts how and in what way he prepared to receive him. But take note of this: that apart from God it is impossible to comprehend the logos of providence and judgment; and therefore the one who wishes to grasp this logos cries to God for assistance, that this will especially bless him.
