The title quotes Psalm 113:3, a verse from the Hebrew Psalms that calls for praise of the Lord from sunrise to sunset. Psalm 113 is one of the Hallel psalms, which Jews recite on festivals including Passover, so the line has long been tied to Jewish worship. Prints that pair a biblical verse with a view of the Holy Land were popular with Christian and Jewish audiences in the 19th century, and they often used the text to frame the scenery as a place of scripture. The record does not name the scene, so the verse itself is the best clue to the picture's intent.
