This psalm begins with a recounting of God’s past faithfulness, “We have heard with our ears, our fathers have told us the work you did in their days, the days of old” (v1). The writer’s problem is Israel seems to be under judgement, and the writer knows no reason. It is written as a “Maskil,” a contemplative piece that often is introspective.
Most of us have at some point asked “Why?” God gives us the privilege of asking “Why,” if we are ready to accept His answer when he gives it. Then we become part of those who tell the next generation “of the work that God did in our days.”
