0:18[Music]
0:24family. Welcome to day 287 here at the
0:27Bible department. Today we are looking
0:29at Psalms 104, 105, and 106. And I know
0:33I'm not allowed to have favorite days,
0:35but this is a good day, man. These are
0:37three solid, solid, solid Psalms. So, if
0:41you haven't done the reading yet, I want
0:43to challenge you. Go ahead, stop the
0:46video, pause the audio, go get the
0:48reading done. These are beautiful,
0:51beautiful, beautiful, beautiful Psalms.
0:53and uh Psalm 104 kind of stands alone,
0:56but then Psalm 105 and 106 are a pair
0:59and that's some really really important
1:00context that you're going to need. And
1:03if you've done the reading, with no
1:04further ado, let's dive into our context
1:07clues. Then I'll give you nerdy nuggets
1:09and then we'll always end the episode
1:12with a timeless truth because we are not
1:14just here to learn history or
1:16archaeology. The Bible is not a
1:19textbook. It is designed to have wisdom
1:22that you apply to your life. So, uh,
1:24context clues. Okay, first context clue
1:27is Psalm 104, which you've probably
1:30realized after looking at it is a
1:32creation psalm. Now, uh, many people
1:35know when you think about the creation
1:37accounts that we have in the Bible, most
1:40people know that there are two, right?
1:42There's a creation account in Genesis
1:43chapter 1. And then there's another
1:46creation account in Genesis chapters 2
1:48and 3, but there's also a creation
1:51account here in Psalm 104. Now, we've
1:54already seen throughout the Psalms a lot
1:58of illusions to the creation accounts.
2:01And a lot of these are poetic and
2:03mythological
2:05kind of uh retellings of the seven days
2:08of creation. But this is the big one.
2:12All right, we've seen minor poetic and
2:16mythological retellings of the creation,
2:19but this one is the big kahuna. All
2:21right, so Psalm 104 is going to be chalk
2:25full of mythological language, poetic
2:28language that honestly kind of gives an
2:32entirely different perspective on the
2:34seven days of creation. There are times
2:36where, you know, I will teach, hey,
2:40Genesis chapter 1 is not primarily the
2:42account of God taking nothing and making
2:46something, but God taking chaos and
2:48making order. And people look at Genesis
2:501 and not be fully convinced. But then
2:53you start to look at other creation
2:55accounts in the Bible like Psalm 104 and
2:58you begin to realize, oh, the authors
3:01are taking their mythological worldview
3:05and reading Genesis chapter 1 and then
3:08coming up with content like we have in
3:11Psalm 104 that is deeply infused with an
3:16ancient and mythological worldview.
3:18Okay. So Psalm 104 is huge for uh
3:22creating a truly biblical worldview of
3:27of creation. All right. All right. So
3:29that's Psalm 104. The most helpful piece
3:31of context I could give you for Psalm
3:33105 and Psalm 106 is that they are a
3:36pair. Now, if you don't know that each
3:39of the two Psalms stand alone
3:42beautifully, but the moment you know
3:44that these are a pair, it kind of
3:46clicks. It's the interpretive key that
3:49makes these two psalms really come to
3:51life. And uh that's all the context
3:53we'll dive into for now. Uh so today we
3:56don't necessarily have like historical
3:58context or cultural context, but we
4:02definitely have what I would say is
4:04literary context. Okay. Uh Psalm 104
4:07fits into a literary genre that we know
4:10as mythol mythological and poetic. That
4:14is a literary context. And then for
4:17Psalm 105 and Psalm 106, we again have
4:20literary context. These Psalms are a
4:23pair. And if you don't know that, then
4:26you don't really get the full breadth of
4:30of really what the Psalms are trying to
4:32communicate. Okay, let's dive in uh to
4:35these to these beautiful, beautiful,
4:38beautiful, beautiful psalms. All right,
4:40let's start our nerdy nuggets. Let's
4:43start with Psalm 104. Again, we are
4:45going to see tons of details. Now, one
4:48of my professors in Bible college began
4:50to explain the difference between a
4:53summary and a paraphrase that a summary
4:56takes content and condenses it down. A
4:59paraphrase actually takes content and
5:02expands on it. Okay? So, I want to say
5:04that one more time. A summary will take
5:07a paragraph and condense it down to a
5:10sentence. But a paraphrase takes a
5:13sentence and enlarges it to a paragraph.
5:15Okay? So what we have in Psalm 104 is a
5:20paraphrase
5:21of Genesis chapter 1. Now a lot of
5:25people think that a paraphrase and a
5:27summary are the same thing, but they're
5:29not the same thing. Remember, a summary
5:32takes the content and pairs it down. A
5:35summary yet pairs like gets it down. A
5:38paraphrase actually adds words, adds
5:41meaning, fills in the gaps, okay? Adds
5:44content. So what we have in Psalm 104 is
5:46a paraphrase. Okay? So Genesis chapter
5:491, all Genesis chapter 1 tells us is
5:52that Yahweh said, "Let there be light."
5:54But Psalm 104 says, "The Lord wraps
5:56himself in light as with a garment."
5:59Number one, that's just mythological
6:01language. Number two, I would say that
6:04that is a poetic retelling. Okay. All
6:07Genesis 1 says is that in the beginning
6:09God created the heavens and the earth.
6:12Psalm 104:2
6:14again I'm in verse two says he stretches
6:16out the heavens like a tent and lays the
6:19beams of his upper chambers on their
6:22waters. Okay. Now one of the things I
6:25want to emphasize is how important water
6:28is in Psalm 104. Okay. So we're going to
6:31get a mention of waters here in verse
6:33three. We're going to get verse 6. You
6:35covered it with the watery depths as
6:37with a garment. The waters stood above
6:39the mountains. Verse 7, but at your
6:42rebuke the waters fled. We're going to
6:44get verse 10. He makes springs pour
6:47water into ravines. It flows between the
6:49mountains. Verse 11, they give water to
6:52all the beasts of the field. Verse 12,
6:54the birds of the sky nest by the waters.
6:57They sing among the branches. Verse 13,
6:59he waters the mountains from his upper
7:02chambers. Okay. Uh verse 16, the trees
7:05of the Lord are wellwatered. Verse 25,
7:09there is the sea vast and spacious. Um
7:13and if we're going to talk about the
7:14sea, then we got to talk about
7:15Leviathan. Now Psalm 104 names
7:18Leviathan. Okay. Uh so whereas Genesis
7:22chapter 1 is just going to say God made
7:24the great sea creatures. Psalm sorry
7:26Genesis Yeah. Genesis chapter 1 is just
7:29going to say that God made the great sea
7:30creatures. Psalm 104 is going to say
7:33there the ships go go to and fro in
7:36Leviathan which you form to frolic
7:39there. Uh Psalm 104 is going to fill in
7:42the gaps. Right? This is a paraphrase.
7:44So whereas Psalm 104 sorry whereas
7:47Genesis chapter 1 doesn't name the sea
7:50dragon, doesn't name the sea creature,
7:52Psalm 104 names it and gives detail.
7:56Okay. So again, Genesis 1 acts like a
8:00broad overview and then Psalm 104 and
8:02other places in the Bible begin to
8:04really fill in the gaps of our
8:06understanding. Now I need you to see
8:08this. There's an emphasis on water.
8:11There's an emphasis on Leviathan. Why?
8:13Well, because every single creation
8:16account in the Assyrian, Babylonian,
8:19Mesopotamian, or Canaanite, or even
8:22Egyptian world included a godlike
8:25figure, a deity that had to combat a
8:28chaos dragon that came up out of the sea
8:31and then tame the chaos of the sea. So
8:35the sea or the waters and the sea
8:39monsters or the chaos dragon that lives
8:41in those seas have to be dealt with in
8:45every other ancient neareastern uh
8:47mythological creation story. And so
8:51Genesis and Psalm 104 tell you right off
8:55the bat the world view that the authors
8:58are coming from. Okay? So this stuff is
9:01right here in Psalm 104. an emphasis on
9:04the seas, the waters, and Leviathan.
9:07Okay. Next thing I want you to see,
9:08verse 5, Psalm 104. He set the earth on
9:11its foundations. It can never be moved.
9:15Now, this verse right here is going to
9:17be one of the favorite verses for anyone
9:20who believes in flat earth. All right?
9:23Uh and again, the issue with people who
9:25believe in flat earth, A, they're crazy,
9:27but C, okay, A, they're crazy. B, they
9:31they know what the Bible says, but not
9:34what the Bible means. Okay, so again,
9:37literary context. The Bible is not to be
9:40taken literally, but literarily. Okay,
9:44not literally. The Bible doesn't
9:46literally mean that the earth can't be
9:48moved because they would say the earth
9:50can't spin. When science says that the
9:52earth is spinning, that can't be true
9:54because the Bible says it can never be
9:56moved. And when science says the earth
9:58is round, that doesn't work because the
10:00earth has foundations. Okay? Your house
10:02has a foundation. Buildings have a
10:04foundation. And foundations are, you
10:06guessed it, drum roll please,
10:09flat. So they believe that the earth is
10:11flat. Okay? This is a classic example of
10:15taking the Bible literally without
10:18regard for the genre of literature that
10:21you are reading. Okay? Psalm 104 is
10:24poetic. It's mythological. But if you
10:27read the newspaper the same way you read
10:30Harry Potter, then you're not putting on
10:32different interpretive lenses based on
10:35literary genre. You're just reading
10:37every literary genre the same. And a lot
10:39of people read the Bible that way. They
10:41are not reading Revelation different
10:42than they read Genesis different than
10:43they read the Psalms different than they
10:45read Daniel or different than they read
10:47Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. Whereas
10:49every book of the Bible that I just
10:51named actually represents a different
10:52literary genre of literature. Okay? And
10:57so every literary genre has to be read
11:01differently in the same way that you
11:03don't read a contract the same way that
11:05you read poetry. You don't. I know that
11:08you don't. There's no way that you do.
11:09And you don't read Harry Potter the
11:11same. And some of you are like, I don't
11:13read Harry Potter at all. It's evil. I I
11:15got you. I got you. I got you. Calm
11:16down. you know, you don't read fiction
11:19the same way that you would read a
11:20dictionary, right? So, a lot of times we
11:23bring a lack of literary uh
11:26understanding or understanding of
11:29literary genre to the Bible and
11:32unfortunately we begin to interpret
11:34verses like Psalm 104:5 and come to flat
11:38earth conclusions when you don't need to
11:39come to flat earth conclusions. All
11:41right, I want you to see one more thing
11:43in verse 24. There's an emphasis on
11:45wisdom. Uh obviously uh Proverbs chapter
11:488 is going to go into large detail on
11:50how God used wisdom to actually create
11:53the cosmos. Says this, "How many are
11:55your works, Lord, in wisdom you made
11:57them all. The earth is full of your
12:00creatures. There is the sea vast and
12:02spacious." So this emphasis on wisdom.
12:04So Psalm 104 is chalk full. You could
12:08really understand the biblical worldview
12:10by looking at this psalm also. It is
12:12just beautiful. To get a poetic version
12:16of what we have in Genesis chapter 1 is
12:18just really, really, really, really
12:20cool. All right, let's look at Psalm 105
12:22and 106. We got a lot of nerdy nuggets.
12:24Okay, when we start looking at Psalm
12:26105, you'll begin to see that Psalm 105
12:29is all about Yahweh's faithfulness.
12:31Okay, so it's the story of Yahweh and
12:34Israel told from Yahweh's perspective.
12:37Psalm 106 is its mirrored pair. It's the
12:40faithlessness or the unfaithfulness of
12:44the people of Israel. So it is the story
12:47of Yahweh to Israel told from the
12:49people's perspective. So according to
12:51Yahweh, Yahweh's been faithful. He's
12:54come through time and time and time
12:55again. He's rescued them. He's delivered
12:57them. He's saved them. He's done all
12:59these mighty things. He's done all these
13:01amazing things. And then Psalm 106 is
13:04all about how the people have failed.
13:06They've stumbled. They've worshiped
13:08idols. They've done all kinds of things
13:09and and I'm going to kind of just
13:11highlight for you the juxtaposition
13:13between Yahweh's faithfulness and the
13:17people's faithlessness. Okay? Or the
13:19people's failures really. Uh so Psalm
13:22105, Yahweh's faithfulness. Psalm 106,
13:25the failures and lack of faithfulness of
13:29of the people. All right. So Psalm 105
13:32verse 5, remember the wonder he has
13:35done. So it's an acknowledge to the
13:37people. Hey, remember all the things
13:39that he's done. Okay, first of all, he
13:42remembers his covenant forever. That's
13:44verse eight. Um the covenant that he
13:46made with Abraham. So, it's going to
13:48start all the way with Abraham. Okay?
13:50And it's going to kind of recount all
13:51the things that God's done. Actually,
13:53I'm going to kind of give you an outline
13:55here. Uh verses 1 to 15 is going to be
13:58Yahweh's faithfulness to Abraham and the
13:59patriarchs. Then verses 16 to 25 is all
14:02about Yahweh's faithfulness to Joseph in
14:05Egypt and Jacob and the family that that
14:08God's going to create. And then verse 26
14:10to 36 is all about God's power and his
14:13faithfulness to Moses and the plagues of
14:16Egypt. And then verses 37 to 38 is all
14:19about Yahweh's faithfulness in the
14:20Exodus. And then verses 39 to 40 is all
14:23about Yahweh's faithfulness to lead and
14:25feed the people through the wilderness
14:27or while they were in the wilderness.
14:29And then verses 43 to 45 is all about
14:32Yahweh's faithfulness as the people are
14:35going to uh conquer the land of Canaan.
14:38Okay, so all about Yahweh's
14:40faithfulness. I went through Psalm 105
14:43and just began to highlight all the
14:45things that Yahweh did. Okay, so I'm
14:48just going to go through these really
14:49fast. Okay, Yahweh allowed no one to
14:51oppress them. That's verse 14. Verse 16,
14:54Yahweh called down famine on the land
14:56and destroyed all the supplies of food.
14:58Okay. Next, verse 17. And Yahweh sent a
15:01man before them, Joseph, sold as a
15:03slave. Okay. Verse 24. Yahweh made his
15:06people very fruitful. He made them too
15:08numerous for their foes. That means they
15:10increased in number. And while they were
15:12in Egypt, Yahweh sent Moses his servant.
15:14Verse 26. And Aaron whom he had chosen.
15:18Um uh verse 28. Yahweh sent darkness and
15:23made the land dark. Okay. Verse 29,
15:25Yahweh turned their water into blood.
15:27Okay. Uh verse 31, Yahweh spoke and
15:31there came swarms of flies. Verse 32,
15:33Yahweh turned their rain into hail with
15:37lightning throughout their land. Verse
15:3933, Yahweh struck down their vines and
15:41fig trees. Uh verse 34, Yahweh spoke and
15:46the locust came, grasshoppers without
15:48number. Okay. Verse 36, Yahweh struck
15:50down all the firstborn in the land. This
15:52this is all stuff that Yahweh did in the
15:55midst of the plagues. Okay. Uh verse 37,
15:58Yahweh brought out Israel laden with
16:00silver and gold. Verse 39, Yahweh spread
16:03out a cloud as a covering. Okay. Verse
16:0641, Yahweh opened the rock and water
16:08gushed out. It flowed like a river in
16:10the desert. Why? This is a theme. Okay.
16:14For he remembered his holy promise given
16:16to his servant Abraham. The theme that
16:18we're going to see in Psalm 105, then
16:21carried to Psalm 106, is that Yahweh
16:23remembers, but the people don't
16:24remember. Yahweh remembers to be
16:26faithful, but the people, because they
16:28forget, they are now unfaithful. Okay?
16:31So, remembering, having a good memory is
16:35the thing that prompts you to to be
16:37faithful. Remembering and faithfulness
16:40go together. Forgetting and
16:42unfaithfulness go together. And this is
16:44going to be, if you don't think this is
16:46about to be a timeless truth, it is
16:48because anytime God's people, that's me
16:51and you, have gone astray or have been
16:54unfaithful, it's because of our
16:56spiritual amnesia. You forgot what God
16:59delivered you from. You forgot what he
17:00rescued you from. You forgot who you
17:03used to be. You forgot all of his
17:05benefits and his miracles towards you.
17:07And all the things that you used to be
17:09grateful for, you've now taken for
17:10granted. And because you have amnesia,
17:13you have now gone astray. Astray and
17:16amnesia go together. Okay? All right.
17:19Yahweh brought out his people with
17:20rejoicing. That's verse 43. Verse 44.
17:23Yahweh gave them the lands of the
17:26nations. And why why did he do all this?
17:28Well, it culminates in the last verse of
17:31the psalm. Verse 45, that they might
17:33keep Yahweh's precepts and observe
17:36Yahweh's laws. What an epic conclusion.
17:39Why did God do all this? So the people
17:42could keep his precepts and observe his
17:44law. So that they could obey. Yahweh
17:47performed all these things. So that they
17:49could obey. Because in the Bible, the
17:52definition of grace is that Yahweh's
17:55provision happens before his
17:58requirements. Okay? If he would require
18:02you to do things first as a prerequisite
18:05for his salvation, that would be law.
18:07But he doesn't operate in law. He
18:08operates in grace. So he gives you a
18:11free gift and then requires
18:13righteousness as a response, not as a
18:15prerequisite. Okay? We have made any
18:18kind of discipline or righteousness
18:21legalism in today's culture. But it's
18:23not. Legalism is not about obeying God.
18:26It's about obeying God to earn God's
18:29salvation. But God outlines clearly in
18:31Psalm 105. God did. God did. God did.
18:34God did. God sent. God turned. God
18:37spoke. God struck down. God brought out.
18:40God spread out. God made his people
18:43fruitful. God sent a man named Joseph.
18:45God called down famine. God allowed them
18:47no one to oppress them. God remembered.
18:50God gave. God God
18:53did did did did did did did. Why? So
18:57that they might keep his precepts and
18:59observe his laws. So if you think that
19:02that's legalism, you're clearly not
19:05reading this. Well, it's God does. God
19:09does. God does. God does. God does. God
19:11does. God does. Now, God expects you to
19:14do. God does. God does. God does. God
19:16does. God does. You do. You do so that
19:18God can do would be legalism. But God
19:21doing everything and then asking you to
19:23play your part is not legalism. That's
19:26just a righteous response. That's a
19:27reasonable response. Family, the wait is
19:30over. for my brand new book, Crushing
19:33Chaos, is out now and available
19:36everywhere books are sold literally
19:39today. I walked into a Barnes & Noble
19:42and I signed a bunch of copies at a
19:44physical location. So, you can grab this
19:47book at a physical Barnes & Noble or you
19:50can go to a Books a Million or Amazon or
19:52anywhere books are sold and grab a copy.
19:56If you enjoy reading the Bible from an
19:59ancient perspective, if you understand
20:01that the beauty of scripture is actually
20:03knowing it in context, then you'll love
20:06this book. And if there's any chaos in
20:09your personal life, I think that reading
20:11the Bible from an ancient perspective
20:14can actually help to crush the chaos in
20:16your life. I think this book is going to
20:18be a New York Times bestseller. I really
20:20do. I think we wrote a good one. I think
20:22you should get a copy today. All right,
20:25back to the episode. Uh, all right.
20:27Psalm 106, okay, is the opposite. Okay,
20:31the people, verse 6, we have sinned even
20:34as our ancestors did. We have done wrong
20:36and acted wickedly. Okay, verse seven,
20:39like halfway through verse 7, they did
20:42not remember your many kindnesses. First
20:46of all, kindnesses is a great word. Your
20:48many kindnesses, they did not remember.
20:51Okay. Why did they go astray? Because
20:55they did not remember. I need us to
20:57bring this into our timeless truth
20:58today. Anytime we forget what God has
21:02done, anytime we don't remember his
21:04kindnesses towards us, we are in we are
21:09at risk of going astray. So verse 13,
21:14but they soon forgot. And now the psalm
21:17is going to outline what the people did.
21:19Okay. Verse 24, they despised. Okay, so
21:22remember all those things God did, okay?
21:24God brought out, God provided, God
21:26delivered, God raised up Joseph, God,
21:28all that stuff God did in Psalm 105.
21:31Well, think about what all the people
21:32did in Psalm 106. Here we go. They
21:34despised the pleasant land. That's verse
21:3624. They did not believe his Yahweh's
21:39promise. Verse 25, uh, sorry, that was
21:42verse 24. Verse 25, they grumbled. Verse
21:4528, they yolked themselves together to
21:48ba ba all. Verse 29, they aroused the
21:51Lord's anger. Okay. Verse 33, they
21:53rebelled against the spirit of God.
21:55Verse 34, they did not destroy the
21:57peoples as the Lord had commanded them.
22:00Verse 35, but they mingled with the
22:02nations, and they adopted their customs.
22:05Verse 36, they worshiped their idols
22:08which became a snare to them. Verse 37,
22:10they sacrificed their sons and their
22:12daughters to false gods. Verse 38, they
22:14shed innocent blood. Verse 39, they
22:17defiled themselves. Okay. Verse 43, many
22:21times Yahweh delivered them, but they
22:25were bent on rebellion and they wasted
22:28away in their sin. And how does it all
22:31end? Here we go. Save us, Lord our God,
22:35and gather us from the nations that we
22:37may give thanks to your holy name and
22:39glorify
22:41in glor in glory in your praise. Praise
22:44be to Yahweh, the God of Israel. From
22:47everlasting to everlasting, let all the
22:49people say, "Amen. Praise the Lord." And
22:52that is the end of book four. Okay, that
22:55closes book four. Okay, what an epic way
22:57to close the fourth book of the Psalms,
23:00which leads us right into our timeless
23:02truth that God is faithful even in the
23:06middle of our failure. Man, if that's
23:08not true, if if that's not the testimony
23:11of your life, I think you're lying. that
23:14God delivered. God provided. God
23:17exceeded all expectations. God came
23:19through. But you went after idols. You
23:23went astray. You forgot. He remembered.
23:26You forgot. He was faithful. You were
23:29faithless. God succeeded. You failed.
23:32And we need to have always before us.
23:36Man, I am constantly in violation of
23:39God's covenant. He is constantly pouring
23:42out grace on me. Like like this is never
23:46gonna be a 50-50 relationship. I am
23:48always gonna need God to make up for my
23:52lack. And I need to keep an account of
23:56all the things he's done because I need
23:59to stop forgetting all the ways that
24:01he's made and all the things that he's
24:03provided. Actually, I don't do this
24:06often, but I actually want to give some
24:08homework today for our timeless truth. I
24:10want you to just get a notebook page and
24:13I just want you to just write out all
24:15the things that God's done. And and and
24:17the psalmist starts with Abraham. He
24:19goes back hundreds of years and he goes
24:21through history and he just recounts the
24:24story of how faithful Yahweh's been all
24:26throughout every season. You were
24:28faithful to Abraham. You were faithful
24:29with the patriarchs. You're faithful
24:30with Joseph. You're faithful with Jacob.
24:32You're faithful with Moses. You're
24:33faithful in the plagues. You're faithful
24:35in the Exodus. You're faithful through
24:36the wilderness. You were faithful
24:38through with Joshua in the conquest. Uh
24:40he just goes through hundreds and
24:41hundreds of years. How about this? Can
24:42you just go back through the last 10
24:44years of your life and just oh God, God
24:47rescued us? Like whatever the scenarios
24:50are, can you get as detailed as you can?
24:52I actually want to challenge you. Could
24:54you write a psalm of how faithful God
24:56has been? It's one thing to read Psalm
24:59105 and Psalm 106 and see it side by
25:02side and and go, "Oh, that was history."
25:05But it it would be powerful if you just
25:07got two pages in your notebook and you
25:09just wrote out how faithful God has been
25:11and then how faithless you've been.
25:13Could you maybe recreate Psalm 105 and
25:15Psalm 106 for yourself? And man, I bet
25:18you by the time you get down to the end
25:20of your own personal Psalm 106, I I I'd
25:23be shocked if if there aren't tears, you
25:25know, uh, filling your cheeks, I I I'd
25:28be shocked if you're not constantly or
25:30or intimately aware that, man, God's
25:33been so kind. He's been so gracious. And
25:36God, help me to not forget how awesome
25:39you've been and all of your benefits
25:41towards me. That's our Thomas Truth for
25:44the day. Tomorrow, we're going to start
25:46book five. Can you believe it? Four
25:48books of the Psalms down, one book to
25:50go. Obviously, as you can tell, uh, book
25:54five of the Psalms is going to start at
25:56107. It's going to go all the way to
25:58150. Tomorrow, we're just going to look
26:00at Psalm 107, 108, and 109. The first
26:03three Psalms of the fifth book of the
26:06Psalms. I'm so excited that we get to
26:08study the Bible together. This year, we
26:10got day 288 tomorrow. Same place, same
26:13time. Can't wait to see you. I love you.
