Excerpt from The Punishment of Treason: A Discourse Preached April 23d, 1865, in the South Presbyterian Church of Brooklyn
The term, throne, in this passage means government; and here it means the moral government of God. The word, habitation, means establishment, institution, or fixed appointment. In God's government justice and judgment are then declared to have an abiding place. They belong to it.
