Comment – In Psalm 87, the author writes that he has heard wonderful things coming from the prophets concerning the city of God. The holy mountains, which represent the solid foundation of the city, are Mount Zion and the small hill on which the temple was built.
Psalm 87 complete
[1] Of the sons of Core. Psalm. I sing. Its foundations are on the holy mountains;
[2] the Lord loves the gates of Zion more than all the dwellings of Jacob.
[3] Wonderful things are said about you, city of God.
[4] I will remember Rahab and Babylon among those who know me; here, Palestine, Tire and Ethiopia: all there were born.
[5] It will be said of Zion: "Both were born in it and the Most High keeps it steadfast".
[6] The Lord will write in the book of peoples: "He was born there."
[7] And dancing they will sing: "All my springs are in you."
