Psalms 73 Footnotes

Ps 73 The psalmist (Asaph, according to the superscription) reports he had serious doubts (v. 13) about the value of his faith when he saw the prosperity of the wicked all around him (v. 3). But he handled his doubts correctly; he did not publicize them to other people who might have been disillusioned by them. Rather, he went to the sanctuary (v. 17) where, in the presence of God, he saw things in eternal perspective.
