A Global Gospel Proclamation

Commentators unanimously see the phrase "Say among the nations, 'The Lord reigns!'" as a direct command for global proclamation. This isn't just a statement of fact for a select few, but a gospel message for the entire world. Scholars like Gill and Ellicott view this as the essential mission of God's people: to announce that Christ is the rightful King and to invite all nations to submit to His good and just rule.
