    Psalm 23: Psalm Of David

    • 747 Words
    • 3 Pages

    Psalms 23 I find in the historical background of the 23rd Psalm that David was the author. David was a shepherd in his youth‚ preparing him for the shepherding of God’s flock‚ the nation of Israel. The Lord chose David as his servant‚ and brought him to shepherd Jacob His people‚ and Israel His inheritance. There is a possibility that David wrote this psalm as a boy while he was tending his flock‚ since he spent many lonely hours in the fields. It is hard to understand how a young boy could

    Exegesis of the Gospel according to Matthew Chapter 5:3-12 The Eight Beatitudes In Matthew’s Gospel‚ starting with Chapter five verses three through twelve‚ Jesus tells us of the Eight Beatitudes. These verses are much like The Ten Commandments in nature‚ but more philosophical: · "Blessed are the poor in spirit‚ for theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven." · "Blessed are those who mourn‚ for they shall be comforted." · "Blessed are the meek‚ for they shall inherit the Earth." · "Blessed are those

    Exegesis Isaiah

    CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION The Pericope chosen is from Isaiah 58‚ v 6-9‚ and it deals with the fast that God likes and requires. The power of the fast is directly related to God’s involvement. We certainly can decide to fast as we wish; however‚ the result may be that we simply go without food. When we respond to the “call of the Lord to fast” there is no telling what He has in mind to accomplish. Therefore‚ this passage of the Scripture teaches the reader that

    Particularly in Psalms 46‚ the geographical images are key to promoting Jerusalem as a sacred city. For instance‚ the first stanza claims that the people are not fearful of any natural disasters‚ for God is always present to protect them. The fact that the passage refers to God as the “God of Jacob” twice shows the importance of Jacob’s role in the Bible. In fact‚ Jacob has a dream in which he “saw a ladder reaching to heaven‚ with angels ascending and descending on it‚ and heard the Lord speaking

    Psalm 6 Psalm 6 is an example of a psalm of lament‚ in this particular psalm David laments about his sins and the foreboding guilt they have caused him‚ “Lord‚ do not rebuke me in your anger
 or discipline me in your wrath. Have mercy on me‚ Lord‚ for I am faint” (Ps.6: 1-2‚ New International Version). This psalm resonates with all Christians because we have all felt remorseful for our wicked ways. David then elaborates on the physical and emotional torment his guilt has caused him‚ “…my bones are

    Genre the psalms An aid in reading the Psalms is to be able to arrange them in literary categories or genres. Based on thematic elements that are shared between psalms and literary features‚ we can more precisely classify the lyric poems of the Psalms. While some of the following literary categories may overlap as well as the rubrics for each may differ with varying sources‚ it is possible to place the psalms into six basic genres. Today we will briefly examine the first three of these. 1. Lament

    With all the Psalms that David wrote‚ Psalm 23 stands out to me the most. It’s a really short one‚ but I like how it projects a lot of David’s heart for the Lord. As I read it over and over‚ I can see and feel David’s heart-felt worship for the Lord. What I really like in this Psalm is that David shows us complete fullness in God as he worships Him. He knows there isn’t anything else that could bring him complete satisfaction‚ joy‚ security‚ and peace. I like this Psalm most out of all the other
