Salmos 78:42-72 RVR1960

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Psalms 78:72

He commends David for the two necessary ingredients of a good prince. 1. Integrity; whereby he sincerely sought the good and welfare of his people, avoiding and abhorring those counsels and courses which were contrary thereunto. 2. Skilfulness; whereby he managed all the public affairs with singular prudence; which is here ascribed to his hands, not because it was seated in them, but because it was acted and discovered by them, and appeared in all his actions or administrations. read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Psalms 78:1-72

INTRODUCTIONSuperscription,—“Maschil of Asaph,” i.e., an instruction of Asaph, a didactic song by Asaph. The Psalm was probably written by the celebrated Asaph in the time of David.Occasion.—The Psalm seems to have been occasioned by the jealousy of the tribe of Ephraim, by reason of the position which the tribe of Judah held under David. For many years the haughty and powerful tribe of Ephraim was pre-eminent amongst the tribes. The sanctuary was placed in Shiloh, which is in this tribe. When... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Psalms 78:69

Psalms 78:69 I. Stability and permanence are, perhaps, the especial ideas which a church brings before the mind. It represents, indeed, the beauty, the loftiness, the calmness, the mystery, and the sanctity of religion also, and that in many ways. Still, more than all these, it represents to us its eternity. II. See what a noble principle faith is. The Christian throws himself fearlessly on the future, because he believes in Him which is, and which was, and which is to come. One lays the... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Psalms 78:70

Psalms 78:70 I. Consider David's calling. The words of the text form the clearest and grandest explanation of the wonderful process by which the unknown shepherd became Israel's greatest king. Two questions present themselves here: (1) How was David's shepherd life an unconscious preparation for his calling? The effect of solitude is to awaken faith in the invisible. Sailors see portents in the clouds, hear words in the night wind; shepherds have a strong belief in the supernatural. In solitude... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Psalms 78:1-72

Psalms 78:1-72 Psalms 78:1-72 is a psalm that rehearses the history of God's people. And the psalm was written in order to remind the children, the coming generation, of the works of the Lord. One of the important obligations that we have is that we not see a move of God and then see it die with the passing generation. But unfortunately, rarely does a work of God continue into a second generation. Unfortunately, we begin to get our eyes upon the things that God has done, upon the great... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Psalms 78:1-72

Title. Maschil of Asaph. Rabbi Kimchi says, that this title, which signifies to give instruction, designates also the species of music or melody to which the words were set, as is now the practice of composers. Handel named his celebrated piece, The Messiah. This psalm is a species of carmen seculare to the Hebrews. Psalms 78:1 . Give ear, oh my people. Hebrew poetry generally begins with bold addresses. Psalms 45:1. Isaiah 1:2. Psalms 78:2 . A parable, a succession of wise and... read more

Psalms 78:51-52And smote all the firstborn in Egypt;. . . but made His own people to go forth like sheep.God’s dealings with Egypt and IsraelI. The punishment of egypt. Egypt, through its kings, had become the determined adversary of God. “Who is Jehovah, that I should obey His voice?” was the challenge flung down by Pharaoh in defiance; and the Lord, who is a man of war, was not slow to accept it. Let us learn from this that, when God comes to try conclusions between Himself and His enemies,... read more

Psalms 78:56-57And kept not His testimonies: but turned back, and dealt unfaithfully their fathers.The deceitfulness of the heart as to dutyI. As to the performance of duty, the heart discovers its power of deceit.1. By diverting a person from those duties that are most spiritual in their nature. It will plead as to self-examination and meditation on the Word, that these duties are of too difficult a nature; that they require too close an attention; that it is very provoking to God to perform... read more

Psalms 78:69He built His sanctuary like high palaces, like the earth which He hath established for ever. The Gospel palaces“He built His sanctuary like high palaces”; look through this very country, compare its palaces with its cathedrals and churches, even in their present state of disadvantage, and say whether these words are not more than accomplished; so that the palaces of England should rather, by way of honour, be compared to the cathedrals, than the cathedrals to the palaces. And... read more
