Psalms 114 - Introduction

A.M. 2962. B.C. 1042.

As the foregoing Psalm, says Bishop Patrick, calls our attention to some instances of divine providence toward particular persons, so this gives us a brief account of some miraculous works of that providence in behalf of the whole Jewish nation. In particular it celebrates God's delivering them from Egyptian bondage, giving them the law, and bringing water out of the rock for them, Psalms 114:1.
