Gill's Notes on the Bible
The Lord looketh from heaven,.... Where his throne and temple are, upon the earth and men, and things in it, as follows;
he beholdeth all the sons of men; the evil and the good; which is contrary to the sense of many wicked men, who imagine he takes no notice of what is done here below; but his eye is upon all, upon all the workers of iniquity, how secret soever they may be; and not only his eye of Providence is upon good men, but his eye of love, grace, and mercy; and he has a special and distinct knowledge of them: agreeably to this are some expressions of Heathen writers; says one e,
"the eye of God sees all things;''
says another f,
"there is a great God in heaven who sees all things, and governs.''
e παντα ιδων διος οφθαλμος, &c. Hesiod. Opera & Dies, l. 1. v. 263. f εστι μεγας εν ουρανω, &c. Sophoclis Electra, v. 174, 175.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The Lord looketh from heaven - heaven is represented as his abode or dwelling; and from that place he is represented as looking down upon all the nations of the earth. The meaning here is, that he sees all that dwell upon the earth, and that, therefore, all that worship him are under his eye. He knows their wants, and he will watch over them to protect them. It is not merely to the abstract truth that God sees all who dwell upon the earth that the psalmist means to refer; but that those who are his friends, or who worship him, are all under his eye, so as to enjoy his watchful care and attention.
He beholdeth all the sons of men - All the descendants of “Adam,” for this is the original. There is no improbability in supposing that the word “Adam” here (usually meaning “man”) is employed as a proper name to denote the great ancestor of the human race, and that the psalmist means to refer to the race as one great family descended from a common ancestor, though scattered abroad over the face of the world.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Psalms 33:13. The Lord looketh from heaven — This and the following verse seem to refer to God's providence. He sees all that is done in the earth, and his eye is on all the children of men.
