Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Psalms 104:6-9

_ _ These verses rather describe the wonders of the flood than the creation (Genesis 7:19, Genesis 7:20; 2 Peter 3:5, 2 Peter 3:6). God’s method of arresting the flood and making its waters subside is poetically called a “rebuke” (Psalms 76:6; Isaiah 50:2), and the process of the flood’s subsiding by undulations among the hills and valleys is vividly described.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Psalms 104:1-9.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes
