The aHebrew word used by the Psalmist, and translated worship, cometh from a root that signifieth to bow down, as Isa. 51. 23. Bow down that we may go over thee. It is most frequently used in the blast Conjugation, which addeth much emphasis, and importeth both a reciprocal action, reflecting upon ones self thus, He bowed himself, 1 Sam. 20. 41. and also a thorough, serious performance thereof, even to the ground; and therefore the word earth, is oft added thereto, to show a bowing as low as can be, even to the earth or ground, Gen. 33. 3. It is most frequently used for an expression of honour and reverence to another, namely, to him unto whom or before whom this gesture is performed; which some Translators set out by this Paraphrase, cthey bowed themselves presenting honour; and others express it by this one word dadore or worship.
