Clarke's Psalms 148:13 Bible Commentary
Let them - All already specified, praise the name of Jehovah, because he excels all beings: and his glory, as seen in creating, preserving, and governing all things, is על al, upon or over, the earth and heaven. All space and place, as well as the beings found in them, show forth the manifold wisdom and goodness of God.
Barnes's Psalms 148:13 Bible Commentary
