Worship with Joyful Noise
Commentators emphasize that the call to 'make a joyful noise' describes worship that is loud, animated, and enthusiastic. It's not a quiet, somber duty but a triumphant shout, like a victory cry or the blast of a trumpet. This joyful expression is fitting for those who see God not as a fearsome judge but as a loving Father and Savior.
