Salmi 106:29 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 106:29

Thus they provoked him to anger with their inventions
Sin is an invention of man's: when our first parents sinned, they found out many inventions; and their posterity ever since have been inventors of evil things; and man's invention is very quick at that work. All false doctrine and false worship are of men's finding out; all idolatrous practices are their inventions, and which are here intended; see ( Psalms 106:39 ) . And these are very provoking to God, who is jealous of his glory, and which is taken from him hereby; and even when he forgives such sins of men, he takes vengeance on their inventions, as in this case, ( Psalms 99:8 ) . For it follows:

and the plague brake in upon them:
like an inundation of water, and carried off four and twenty thousand persons, ( Numbers 25:9 ) .

Salmi 106:29 In-Context

27 E che farebbe cader la lor progenie fra le genti, E che li dispergerebbe per li paesi.

28 Oltre a ciò si congiunsero con Baal-peor, E mangiarono de’ sacrificii de’ morti;

29 E dispettarono Iddio co’ lor fatti, Onde la piaga si avventò a loro.

30 Ma Finees si fece avanti, e fece giudicio; E la piaga fu arrestata.

31 E ciò gli fu reputato per giustizia, Per ogni età, in perpetuo.
