unto the hils] Sion and Moriah, where the sanctuary stood, Psalms 87:1. or, to God, who is as high above all creatures, as the hils are above the valleys, Psalms 123:1. or, to what end should I look up to them, as if I expected help from them, Jeremiah 3:23. when as my help is from God: alluding to the situation of Jerusalem, encompassed with hils.
