Psalms 132:1

PSALM CXXXII

The psalmist prays that God would remember his promises to

David, 1.

His purpose to bring the ark of the Lord into a place of rest,

2-5.

Where it was found, and the prayer in removing it, 6-9.

The promises made to David and his posterity, 10-12.

God's choice of Zion for a habitation, and his promises to the

people, 13-17.

All their enemies shall be confounded, 18.

NOTES ON PSALM CXXXII

Some attribute this Psalm to David, but without sufficient ground; others, to Solomon, with more likelihood; and others, to some inspired author at the conclusion of the captivity, which is, perhaps, the most probable. It refers to the building of the second temple, and placing the ark of the covenant in it.

Verse Psalms 132:1. Lord, remember David] Consider the promises thou hast made to this thy eminent servant, that had respect, not only to him and to his family, but to all the Israelitish people.
