Psalms 128:1-131:3
Manage episode 468124110 series 1107528
In this message, we continue our consideration of the Psalms of the Degrees, written by Hezekiah to commemorate his fifteen extra years of life, granted by Jehovah after the shadow moved backwards ten degrees on the Sundial of Ahaz. The blessed man whose family is healthy and in order is described in Psalm 128. In Psalm 129, Israel had been oppressed by enemies since her youth, but Yahweh had cut their cords asunder. In Psalm 130, perhaps written by Hezekiah on his sickbed, he cries to Yehovah to hear his voice and deliver him from his distress. In Psalm 131, David writes in distress after he was told he would be king of Israel. He had never been ambitious, and did not look for such a responsibility. Yet he quieted himself by looking to the LORD, Who would be the One to bring this great prophecy about.
