Psalms 78:35 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 78:35

And they remembered that God was their Rock
Who had delivered them out of the hands of their enemies, had strengthened them against them, and supported and protected them, as well as supplied them with all good things, of whom they had been greatly unmindful; but affliction was a means of refreshing their memory; see ( Deuteronomy 32:15 Deuteronomy 32:18 ) ,

and the high God their Redeemer;
who had redeemed them out of Egypt, out of the house of bondage, with a high hand and a mighty arm, and thereby showed himself to be the most high God: between this and the following verse the Masorah puts this note,

``half of the book,''

i.e. half of the book of Psalms ends here.

Psalms 78:35 In-Context

33 So their days were wasted like a breath, and their years in trouble.
34 When he sent death on them, then they made search for him; turning to him and looking for him with care;
35 In the memory that God was their Rock, and the Most High God their saviour.
36 But their lips were false to him, and their tongues were untrue to him;
37 And their hearts were not right with him, and they did not keep their agreement with him.
