Psalm 98 begins like Matthew’s parables of the seed. The rather insignificant seed (kingdom) is soon discovered to be larger than all the other plants. What once seemed to be weak soon becomes strong. This is the progression we see in Psalm 98. In this psalm, doxology begins in the house of worship (Israel=New Israel), then it flows to the land, and culminates in all of nature; a display of the all-consuming power of the kingdom of God.
