Praise on Earth and in Heaven
Commentators explain that this verse calls for praise in two primary realms. "In his sanctuary" often refers to God's dwelling place on earth (the temple or the church), while "in the firmament of his power" points to the vast expanse of the heavens. Together, they command worship from every corner of creation, from the local congregation to the farthest star.
