From the Scholars: Barnes' Notes

For he hath looked down from the height of his sanctuary -From his high and holy dwelling-place, in heaven. The word here rendered “looked down,” means, in Kal, to lay upon or over; then, in Niphil, to lie out over anything, to project; and then, to bend forward. It then means to bend or incline forward with an intention to look at anything, as from a window,Genesis 26:8. ComparePsalms 14:2. See alsoPsalms 85:12, note;1 Peter 1:12, note. From heaven did the Lord behold the earth -Did he look abroad over all the world.
