Search The Scriptures —Study 117 — Psalm 146

Study 117 From the Book of Psalms is: Psalm 146

       1-     In verses 3 and 4 the psalmist is warning Israel against trusting God. Cf. Is 30:1-5; 31:1. Why is trusting in man such a mistake? Cf. Is. 2:20-22; Je. 17:5.
       2-     It was always important to Israel to be a remembering people.  See how God’s acts in their experience long before illustrating the statements about God in verses 6c, 7a, 7b, 7c. Look up Jos. 23:14-16; Ex. 3:7, 8; 16:2-4; Ps. 126:1, 2.
3-     Jesus takes up these themes making them the programme of His whole ministry (see Lk. :16-21), and explaining His miracles in these terms (see Mt. 11:2-5, echoing Is. 29:18, 19; 35:5, 6). What does He mean to teach about Himself in this way?
