Salmos 78:34 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 78:34

When he slew them
Some of them, the spies particularly; or when he threatened to slay them, or was about to do it:

then they sought him;
that is, those who either survived the slain, or were threatened with destruction; these sought the Lord by prayer and supplication, that he would not destroy them; the Targum is,

``they repented and sought him;''

see ( Numbers 14:37 Numbers 14:39 Numbers 14:40 ) ,

and they returned;
from their evil ways, and by repentance, at least in show and appearance:

and inquired early after God;
but not earnestly, and with their whole hearts and spirits; the Targum is,

``they prayed before God;''

which is often done, by carnal professors, in trouble; see ( Isaiah 26:16 ) ( Hosea 5:15 ) .

Salmos 78:34 In-Context

32 A pesar de todo, siguieron pecandoy no creyeron en sus maravillas.

33 Por tanto, Dios hizo que sus díasse esfumaran como un suspiro,que sus años acabaran en medio del terror.

34 Si Dios los castigaba, entonces lo buscaban,y con ansias se volvían de nuevo a él.

35 Se acordaban de que Dios era su roca,de que el Dios Altísimo era su redentor.

36 Pero entonces lo halagaban con la boca,y le mentían con la lengua.
