Psalm 75
Dear Jennie:
- vs. 1: Asaph is giving thanks and declaring that God is near
- vs. 2-3: God speaks: He will judge at His selected time. God firmly sets the earths pillars and yet can melt it down to nothing. (Selah)
- vs. 4-5: Is this still God speaking?
- vs. 6: My notes say that "north" isn't mentioned because Assyrians approach from that direction so no one could look to the north for help anyway, only invasion.
- vs. 7: makes me think of Daniel's time and how the Persians came and overthrew the Babylonian empire.
- vs. 8: Again, in the time of Daniel some king, I forget which one, was throwing a big party and was drinking wine out of the golden cups that really belonged to the temple treasury. And that's when the hand came and wrote on the wall and declared their destruction.
- vs. 9-10: Let us declare the Lord God forever and sing his praises. Do you think "horn" means like the instrument?
Love!
