The question "Who is this King of glory?" is answered with a powerful declaration: It is the LORD (Jehovah), defined by His strength and victory. Commentators explain this isn't just a title, but a description of His active character. His might is demonstrated in creation, in His victories on behalf of His people, and supremely in the redemptive work of Christ on the cross.
