Psalm 67
1. A prayer for the enlargement of God's kingdom
3. to the joy of the people
6. and the increase of God's blessings














The earth
The phrase "the earth" in Psalm 67:6 refers to the physical world created by God. In the Hebrew text, the word used is "הָאָרֶץ" (ha'aretz), which encompasses not only the land but also the entirety of the world as God's creation. This highlights the universal scope of God's blessings and the interconnectedness of all creation under His sovereign rule. The earth is seen as a recipient of divine favor, reflecting the biblical theme that God's blessings are not limited to a specific people but extend to all of creation.

has yielded
The term "has yielded" suggests a past action with ongoing results. In Hebrew, the word "נָתְנָה" (natnah) implies a giving or producing, indicating that the earth responds to God's provision by producing fruit. This reflects the biblical principle of sowing and reaping, where the earth's productivity is a direct result of divine blessing. Historically, this would resonate with an agrarian society that depended on the land's yield for survival, underscoring the dependence of humanity on God's provision.

its harvest
The phrase "its harvest" refers to the produce or yield of the earth. In the Hebrew context, "יְבוּלָהּ" (yevulah) signifies the fruitfulness and abundance that comes from the land. Harvest time was a period of joy and thanksgiving in ancient Israel, a tangible sign of God's faithfulness and provision. Scripturally, harvests are often used as metaphors for spiritual truths, such as the gathering of believers or the results of righteous living. This phrase reminds believers of the physical and spiritual sustenance provided by God.

God, our God
The repetition of "God, our God" emphasizes a personal and covenantal relationship with the divine. The Hebrew "אֱלֹהִים אֱלֹהֵינוּ" (Elohim Eloheinu) underscores both the majesty and the intimacy of God. "Elohim" is a plural form used for God, denoting His power and majesty, while "Eloheinu" personalizes this relationship, indicating that He is not just a distant deity but the God of His people. This duality reflects the conservative Christian belief in a God who is both transcendent and immanent.

will bless us
The assurance "will bless us" speaks to the certainty of God's favor and kindness. The Hebrew "יְבָרְכֵנוּ" (yevarechenu) is a future tense verb, promising ongoing and future blessings. This reflects the biblical theme of God's faithfulness to His promises and His desire to bless His people. In a conservative Christian perspective, this assurance is rooted in the covenant relationship between God and His people, where blessings are both a sign of God's grace and a call to live in obedience to His will. This phrase inspires hope and trust in God's continued provision and care.

(6) Then shall the earth yield her increase.--It seems more in keeping with the expression of thanks to render here with the LXX. and Vulg., "The land hath yielded her increase."

Verse 6. - Then shall the earth yield her increase; literally, the land hath given her increase - a quotation from Leviticus 26:4, but probably in a metaphorical sense. An abundant spiritual harvest is seen by the psalmist as the result of the entrance of the Gentiles into the Church - an immense "increase" in the fruits of righteousness hitherto yielded - and this is spoken of as a result already obtained, through the perfect assurance of the writer that his prayers are granted and the result determined on in the Divine counsels. And God, even our own God, shall bless us. "Our own God" must certainly be Jehovah; but the writer, in his broad universalism, will not use the expression.
