Psalms 72:5
"They shall fear you while the sun endures; and as long as the moon, throughout all generations."

Commentary

Gill's Exposition

They shall fear thee,.... The King Messiah, the Judge of the poor, and the destroyer of the oppressor: either the tyrants and oppressors themselves shall fear him, and such who have been aiding and assisting to them;

see Rev 11:11 ; or rather the people of God, the poor of the people, and children of the needy, judged and saved by Christ; who shall fear the Lord, both internally and externally, in the exercise of grace, and in the performance of religious worship; in all the parts of it, which are both included in the fear of the Lord; of which there will be many instances, both among Jews and Gentiles, in the latter day; see Hos 3:5 ; and this they shall do, as long as the sun and moon endure, throughout all generations; or, "with the sun, and before the moon, generation of generations" (r); that is, to the end of the world, until sun and moon shall be no more: so long will Christ have a seed to serve him:; see Psa 89:36 . (r) Sic Eth. Syr. Arab. Apollinarius, Vatablus, & Cocceius.
