A Message for All Nations

Commentators agree that this verse is a clear command for a global proclamation. The message of God's glory and works is not meant to be confined to one group but is intended for 'the nations' and 'all the peoples.' As Albert Barnes highlights, the call is to announce God's character everywhere, forming a basis for the universal mission of the church.
