As the last of the Songs of Ascents (see note Psa. 120:11), Psa. 134 is the praise of a saint, in his going up to Zion, concerning the charge and the blessing given by the children of Israel to the serving priests in the house of God. Verses 1-2 are the charge of the children of Israel to the serving priests to bless Jehovah, and v. 3 is the blessing of the children of Israel to the serving priests. This psalm indicates that the spiritually highest people, those who are in Zion, can bless everyone and instruct everyone (cf. note Gen. 47:71a).
