(00:00) A brief overview of these psalms.
(01:32) Psalm 89 portrays God’s power of creation and his justice. Assurances are made to the anointed king that the seed of David will continue with a promise of victory. The last 14 verses are a lament that the king has been forsaken.
(07:15) Psalm 93 teaches that the Lord is mightier than the waters, with a description of him overcoming chaos in his acts of creation.
(09:14) In Psalm 102 the righteous pray for deliverance. Psalm 115 helps us understand Psalm 102, as they both relate to death and resurrection.
(17:23) In Psalm 116 we are assured that God will redeem mankind from death and sorrow and will one day wipe away our tears.
(24:10) Psalm 103 describes how the Lord’s people rejected him, yet the Lord showed them pity. Much of the Old Testament reflects a post exilic view of God that can be negative. This Psalm shows the lovingkindness of God. Lehi describes the essence of the original Hebrew of this psalm when he says “I am encircled about eternally in the arms of his love.” Knowing God’s true character, nature, and perfections lead us unto salvation.
(31:51) Psalm 105 portrays God’s redemptive work with the children of Israel and the story of the Exodus.
(34:13) Psalm 110, “Thou art a priest forever after the order of Melchizedek.” Different ways to read Psalm 110 in its historical context and in connection with King Benjamin’s sermon. Psalm 110 and Psalm 2 both teach about becoming sons and daughters of Christ.
(45:37) Psalm 118.22, “The stone which the builders refused is become the head stone of the corner.” In the Book of Mormon we are warned against rejecting the Messiah, who sits on the right hand of God. Sometimes the Savior does not meet our preconceived expectations.
(55:07) Psalm 119 is an acrostic poem, a prayer to God, and one the longest of the psalms.
(1:02:35) Psalms 120-134 are 15 “psalms of ascent,” relating to the Water-Drawing Ceremony at the Feast of Tabernacles. Jesus used this imagery to teach about his power to save.
(1:08:21) In Psalm 127 we are reminded that children are an heritage of the Lord.
(1:12:52) Psalm 135 elaborates upon Israel’s history from the pre-earth Council in Heaven to King David.
(1:16:16) Psalm 136 begins in the premortal Council, reiterates the creation, and then Israel’s Exodus. God’s mercy endures forever.
(1:17:39) Psalm 137 is an emotionally moving exilic psalm lamenting the destruction of the temple.
(1:23:34) Psalm 138 is a thanksgiving prayer of praise. Psalm 139 expresses the king’s worthiness to approach God at the veil of the temple.
(1:24:30) Psalm 146 expresses the message of the work Jehovah would do. This was also the message of the angel to King Benjamin. Psalm 148 shows God’s power in his creative works.
(1:27:21) Psalms 149 and 150 emphasize the participatory nature of the First Israelite Temple Drama. Israel is to sing a new song praising God.
