Psalm 146
The Last Sleep of Arthur in Avalon (Detail) - (1898) Edward Burne-Jones (1833-1898) Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood Style Illusions Gallery Image Source: Wikimedia [ Illustration: One key reason to trust the LORD more than princes or any other man is illustrated in today's painting -- when a ruler dies his thoughts and his ability to help perish with him. ] 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 146, the Psalmist advises his readers to trust the LORD rather than men, even princes; and he presents many reasons to do so. The Psalmist praises the LORD and warns against putting one's trust in princes or in men in whom is no help. They die and their thoughts perish (1-4). By contrast, those who hope in God are happy. It is he who made heaven and earth and the sea and all within it. He keeps truth forever. He gives justice to the oppressed. He feeds the hungry. He releases prisoners. He opens the eyes of the blind. He raises those who are bowed down. He loves the righteous. He preserves the strangers. He relieves the fatherless and the widow. But he turns the way of the wicked upside down. The LORD shall reign for ever, throughout all generations (5-10). [ Sermons: Steven J Lawson.

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.

Praise the LORD, O my soul. 2 While I live will I praise the LORD: I will sing praises unto my God while I have any being. 3 Put not your trust in princes, nor in the son of man, in whom there is no help [nothing whatsoevere of rescue]. 4 His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth; in that very day his thoughts perish. 5 Happy is he that hath the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in the LORD his God: 6 Which made heaven, and earth, the sea, and all that therein is: which keepeth truth for ever: 7 Which executeth judgment for the oppressed: which giveth food to the hungry. The LORD looseth the prisoners: 8 The LORD openeth the eyes of the blind: the LORD raiseth them that are bowed down: the LORD loveth the righteous: 9 The LORD preserveth the strangers; he relieveth the fatherless and widow: but the way of the wicked he turneth upside down. 10 The LORD shall reign for ever, even thy God, O Zion, unto all generations [to generation and generation]. Praise ye the LORD. * 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.]
