Psalm 81

from Carefully Examining the Text Hosted by Tommy Peeler

In the podcast I mistakenly say that the New Moon was a weekly feast. That is incorrect. The New Moon was a monthly feast- Numbers 28:11-15. It is alluded to in the OT in several places like I Sam. 20:5, 18, 24, 27; II Kings 4:23; Isaiah 1:13-14; Amos 8:5. What does Psalm 81 teach us about God? 1. God is worthy of praise- 81:1-3 2. God rescued Israel out of Egypt- 81:6-7, 10 3. God asks that His people listen to Him- 81:8- and serve Him alone- 81:9 4. God longs for His people to do the right thing and to bless them- 81:8, 13-16. Jesus fulfills Psalm 81 81:8, 11, 13 God's people must listen to Jesus- Matt. 17:5 81:8, 13 Jesus longs for us to be saved- Matt. 23:37-39; Luke 13:34-35 81:10, 16 Jesus is the ultimate bread who can satisfy our deepest hunger- John 6:35 These are just a few of the ideas from this Psalm.
