The Pulpit Commentary on Psalms 145:11

The Pulpit Commentary · Joseph S. Exell and contributors · Public domain

They shall speak of the glory of thy kingdom (comp. Psalms 22:28; Psalms 45:6). The "glory" of God's kingdom is such that the faithful are naturally drawn to "speak" of it. "His kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and his dominion endureth throughout all ages" (Psalms 145:13).

"His kingdom ruleth over all" (Psalms 103:19)—heaven and earth, and hell, and all space, and whatever space contains. There is no limit either to its extent or its duration. And its "glory" transcends all.

human thought—much more all description. "Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard," etc. And talk of thy power. "Power" is of the essence of kingship, and comes naturally to the front whenever the character of a kingdom is spoken of.
