Psalms 121 - Introduction

A.M. 2959. B.C. 1045.

The matter of this Psalm sufficiently shows that the author of it was conflicting with great difficulties and oppositions, in the midst of which, after looking to different quarters for help, he at last turns his eyes heavenward, and encourages himself by a consideration of the providence of God, and his promises made to his people. The psalmist assures himself of help from God, 1, 2. He assures others of it, 3-8.
