SPECIAL NOTE:

[ I will again be working through the Scriptures from Genesis to Revelation. I will be adding links, resources, images, and the like, upgrading the former work-through which began with the 2013-10-12 posting which can be found, along with the full Genesis to Revelation postings, in the Archive Page. Postings will be at midnight Eastern Time, as I am able. However, no chapters will be skipped, even though a posting may be late. And all postings will be housed in the Archive Page. ]



     Explanation: In Psalm 50, God calls the righteous and the wicked to judgment.
     Asaph calls attention to the words of the LORD God, who called all of he earth together to stand in the presence of the perfection of his beauty, and to behold the fire and tempest which raged around him. He called his saints, those who have made a covenant with him, to gather before him, that they might hear the heavens declare his righteousness as he judges everyone (1-6).
     He calls his people to hear his testimony against them. He did not demand sacrifices from them; he owns every beast in the field and the cattle on a thousand hills. Instead, he tells his people to offer thanksgiving and to pay their vows to him. And he invites them to call on him in the day of trouble and he will deliver them; and they will glorify him (7-15).
     But God asks the wicked why they profess to be partakers of his covenant when they hate instruction and cast his words behind their back. They are partakers with thieves and adulterers. Their mouths are evil. They are deceitful, false accusers, and slanderers -- even against their own brothers. When God kept silent about these things, they thought that he was just like they are. But God said that he will reprove them and show them their sins. So he warns them to consider this before he tears them in pieces with no one to deliver them. In contrast, God says that the one who offers praise glorifies him; and he will deliver those who order their ways and their conduct aright (16-23).

RESOURCES

PLEASE NOTE: Use the resources on this and other sites thoughtfully, particularly the commentaries and encyclopedias. I have attempted to list conservative, scholarly resources. However, some providers use liberal or liberal-influenced commentaries such as the Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges (in Bible Hub). Such commentaries are undoubtedly included by the provider for the wealth of useful information and comments which they provide. By consulting several commentaries, it should be fairly easy to sort out the wheat from the chaff. If, however, you would like personal assistance, write to me at AD LIB ARTS EMAIL.

from the time of David around 1016 B. C. to the close of the Canon in about 404 B. C.
Psalm 90, according to its superscription, was written by Moses; this may have been around 1406 B. C.

1 A Psalm of Asaph. *


The mighty God,
even the LORD,
hath spoken,
and called the earth
from the rising of the sun
unto the going down thereof.
2 Out of Zion,
the perfection of beauty,
God hath shined.
3 Our God shall come,
and shall not keep silence:
a fire shall devour before him,
and it shall be very tempestuous
round about him.
4 He shall call to the heavens from above,
and to the earth,
that he may judge his people.
5 Gather my saints together unto me;
those that have made a covenant with me by sacrifice.
6 And the heavens shall declare his righteousness:
for God is judge himself.
Selah.

7 Hear, O my people,
and I will speak;
O Israel,
and I will testify against thee:
I am God,
even thy God.
8 I will not reprove thee for thy sacrifices
or thy burnt offerings,
to have been continually before me.
9 I will take no bullock out of thy house,
nor he goats out of thy folds.
10 For every beast of the forest is mine,
and the cattle upon a thousand hills.
11 I know all the fowls of the mountains:
and the wild beasts of the field are mine.
12 If I were hungry,
I would not tell thee:
for the world is mine,
and the fulness thereof.
13 Will I eat the flesh of bulls,
or drink the blood of goats?
14 Offer unto God thanksgiving;
and pay thy vows unto the most High:
15 And call upon me in the day of trouble:
I will deliver thee,
and thou shalt glorify me.

16 But unto the wicked
God saith,
What hast thou to do to declare my statutes,
or that thou shouldest take my covenant in thy mouth?
17 Seeing thou hatest instruction,
and castest my words behind thee.
18 When thou sawest a thief,
then thou consentedst with him,
and hast been partaker with adulterers.
19 Thou givest thy mouth to evil,
and thy tongue frameth deceit.
20 Thou sittest
and speakest against thy brother;
thou slanderest [you give slander]
thine own mother's son.
21 These things hast thou done,
and I kept silence;
thou thoughtest that I was altogether such an one as thyself:
but I will reprove thee,
and set them in order before thine eyes.
22 Now consider this,
ye that forget God,
lest I tear you in pieces,
and there be none to deliver.
23 Whoso offereth praise glorifieth me:
and to him that ordereth his conversation aright
will I shew the salvation of God.


1 To the chief Musician, [Transposed From Psalm 51] *


* NOTE: On Opening and Closing Comments in the Psalms.
[Some commentators take the Psalm in Habakkuk 3 to be a standard model for the Psalms.
Habakkuk's Psalm begins with the name of the composer (Habakkuk) and a musical notation ("upon Shigionoth").
It closes with a dedication or a "send to" notice ("To the chief singer on my stringed instruments").
I have arranged similar material, where it is found in the Psalter, in accord with the model in Habakkuk.]
