Psalm 107:1 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 107:1

O give thanks unto the Lord
As all men should do, at all times and for all things; the psalm begins as the former does, and gives the same reasons for thanksgiving.

For he is good;
and does good, and is the author of all good.

For his mercy endureth for ever;
and men in every age are partakers of it.

Psalm 107:1 In-Context

1 "Give thanks to the LORD because he is good, because his faithful love lasts forever!"

2 That's what those who are redeemed by the LORD say, the ones God redeemed from the power of their enemies,

3 the ones God gathered from various countries, from east and west, north and south.

4 Some of the redeemed had wandered into the desert, into the wasteland. They couldn't find their way to a city or town.

5 They were hungry and thirsty; their lives were slipping away.
