That men may know that thou, whose name alone is Jehovah,.... Or, "that thou, thy name alone is Jehovah" (p), a self-existent Being, the Being of beings, the everlasting I AM, the immutable God; for this name is expressive of the being, eternity, and unchangeableness of God, who is, and was, and is to come, invariably the same, Rev 1:4 which is to be understood not to the exclusion of the Son or Spirit, who are with the Father the one Jehovah, Deu 6:4, and to whom this name is given; see Exo 17:6, compared with Co1 10:9, Isa 6:8 compared with Act 28:25, but to the exclusion of all nominal and fictitious deities, the gods of the Heathens; and the being and perfections of God are known by the judgments he executes, Psa 9:16, art the most High over all the earth; or, and that thou art, &c. (q), being the Maker and the Possessor of it, and the sovereign Lord of its inhabitants, doing in it what seems good in his sight; see Gen 14:22, for the accents require two propositions in the text: the Heathens (r) give the title of most high to their supreme deity: the Targum is, "over all the inhabitants of the earth.''
