Psalms 105:1-6

1 Give thanks to the LORD. Call on him. Make known among the nations what he has done.

2 Sing to him. Make music to praise him. Meditate on all the miracles he has performed.

3 Brag about his holy name. Let the hearts of those who seek the LORD rejoice.

4 Search for the LORD and his strength. Always seek his presence.

5 Remember the miracles he performed, the amazing things he did, and the judgments he pronounced,

6 you descendants of his servant Abraham, you descendants of Jacob, his chosen ones.

Psalms 105:1-6 Meaning and Commentary

INTRODUCTION TO PSALM 105

This psalm was penned by David, and sung at the time when the ark was brought from the house of Obededom to the place which David had prepared for it; at least the first fifteen verses of it, the other part being probably added afterwards by the same inspired penman, as appears from 1Ch 16:1-7. The subject matter of the psalm is the special and distinguishing goodness of God to the children of Israel, and to his church and people, of which they were typical: the history of God's regard to and care of their principal ancestors, Abraham, Jacob, Joseph and of the whole body of the people, in bringing them out of Egypt, leading them through the wilderness, and settling them in the land of Canaan, is here recited, as an argument for praise and thankfulness.
