Commentary on Psalms 93:3
The repetition of 'floods have lifted up' creates urgency and intensity, depicting chaotic waters (nahar—rivers/floods) as threatening forces. In Hebrew cosmology, uncontrolled waters symbolize chaos, evil, and opposition to God's order. The threefold repetition ('lifted up... lifted up... lifted up their waves') emphasizes both the magnitude of chaos and the psalmist's rhetorical intensity. Yet even this threatening imagery serves to magnify God's superior power in the next verse.
