Commentaries:
Adam Clarke
The chief of all the people - The corners pinnoth ; for as the corner-stones are the strength of the walls, so are the chiefs the strength of the people. Hence Christ is called the chief corner-stone.
In the assembly of the people of God - The Septuagint translate, And all the tribes of Israel stood up before the face of the Lord, ͅ , in the Church of the people of God. Here was a Church, though there was no priest; for, as Tertullian says, Ubi tres, ecclesia est, licet laici ; "Wheresoever three are gathered together in the name of the Lord, there is a Church, although there be none but the laity."
