"And there are three that bear witness in earth, the Spirit, and the water, and the blood: and these three agree in one". (1 Jn.5.8)
This psalm is especial since it is the testimony of the Son as corroborated by the Word which is the Law. So the laws of nature, the Law of Moses etc., are pendent on the Law of the Spirit. Thus how shall we interpret the v.7 where we have the first Selah? The Spiritual Rock was Christ. (1 Cor.10.4). As the captain of their salvation he is the way. "And the earth was without form' The Spirit moving upon 'the face of the waters' gives the testimony of the water. It makes the refrain "O God, when thou wentest forth before thy people, when thou didst march through the wilderness; Selah.
Without shedding of the blood there is no redemption. Melchizedek giving bread and wine to Abraham illustrates the form that the earth shall ultimately take. The Word validates the symbol of bread from heaven in so many ways. The soldiers in the Midianite camp discuss the dream of the barley loaves which was for Gideon. "And his fellow answered and said, This is nothing else save the sword of Gideon the son of Joash, a man of Israel: for into his hand hath God delivered Midian, and all the host."(Judg.7.13-14).The second marking Selah is at the point where God has become our salvation,"Blessed be the Lord, who daily loadeth us with benefits, even the God of our salvation. Selah.(v.19)
The third refrain is placed where the Word urges the kingdom of kings and priests to praise him. God separated waters from below so his mercy is ever new and refreshes 'thy people'This river becomes the pure river of waters from below so his mercy is ever new and refreshes 'thy people'This river becomes the pure river of water of life. (Rev.22.1) Thus the third refrain has this, "Sing unto God, ye kingdoms of the earth; O sing praises unto the Lord; Selah:"(v.32)
