Wesley's Notes for Psalms 29:6


29:6 Them - The cedars; which being broken by the thunder, the parts of them are suddenly and violently hurled hither and thither. Sirion - An high mountain beyond Jordan joining to Lebanon. Lebanon and Sirion are said to skip or leap, both here, and #Psal 114:4|, by a poetical hyperbole.
