Worship With Your Body
Commentators highlight that the words 'worship,' 'bow down,' and 'kneel' refer to specific physical postures. These acts of prostrating or kneeling express deep reverence, humility, and respect for God's majesty. Scholars like Albert Barnes see this as a 'standing rebuke' to irreverent or overly casual postures during prayer and worship, urging believers to honor God with their bodies as well as their hearts.
