1. Glorious things are said of Zion (1-3)

Zion is the hill on which the temple in Jerusalem was built. It was the place where one might come to have his sins forgiven by the blood of sacrifices, and the place where the merciful and righteous God me this people to give them life and mission.

2. The Lord will write in his register (4-7)

God spoke a world mission message through the psalmist. To be born in Zion meant to be one of god's own chosen and loved people. Here God says that people from the Gentile nations would be called and would become the people of God. God would write in his register concerning Egyptians and Babylonians, Romans, Greeks, Chinese, Americans and Koreans: 'This one was born in Zion.' Through Jesus he calls people from all nations to become apart of his covenant people. Anyone who believes in Jesus can be born again into God's family--born in Zion.
