Learning By Contrast And Need
In Psalm 31, David contrasts the righteous and the wicked. David has about a half dozen things to say early on about the wicked giving us clear insights into life without God. David wrote Psalm 32 in his old age and deals with the perennial problem man has dealt with throughout the ages: why do the wicked so often prosper while the godly face great hardships? Psalm 33 is read by the Jews on Yom Kippur or Day of Atonement and records the physical effects that sin had upon David’s life after his sin with Bathsheba. David acutely aware of his physical frailties cries out to God in Psalm 39 to have a right perspective on life. Psalm 40, is a song of thanksgiving and praise to the Lord. No doubt David looked back on how God, in His faithfulness, brought him through a difficult time.
