Psalms
Chapter
118
{Explanation
of Palm Branches and Analogy to Christ}
{Israel's
Old 'National Anthem' - and by extension any Client Nation's}
{This
Psalm is always sung at the Passover and the Feast of the Tabernacle
- Half Relates to the 1st Advent and the other half to the 2nd Advent}
1~~Give
thanks to Jehovah/God . . .
for
He is absolute good {divine integrity} . . .
for
His grace is eternal.
2~~Oh
let Israel say,
'His
grace is eternal.'
{Note: This is the attitude of a mature believer. Understand eternity and apply that doctrine to time. Nothing in time can harm you. Believers already have eternal life!}
3~~Oh
let the house of Aaron say,
"His
grace is eternal."
4~~Oh
let those who 'are in awe'/'have respect for'
Jehovah/God
say, "His grace is eternal."
{Note: All true love BEGINS with RESPECT.}
5^^
In distress I called on Jah {short for Jehovah}
Jah
answered me and brought me relief.
6^^
Jehovah/God . . . {is} on my side,
I
have no fear;
what
can man do {'asah - manufacture something out of something}
to
me?
7^^
With Jehovah/God on my side as my helper
I
will see the downfall of my foes.
{IMPORTANT
TO REMEMBER}
8~~It
is better take refuge in Jehovah/God. . .
than
to trust in man.
9~~It
is better to take refuge in Jehovah/God . . .
than
to put your trust in politicians/princes.
{Note: No politician or even statesman EVER solved our problems. The greater the mature pivot, the more blessings God will pour out to the nation.}
10^^
All nations have beset me;
by
the name of Jehovah/God
I
will surely cut them down.
11^^
They beset me, they surround me;
by
the name of Jehovah/God I will surely cut them down.
12^^
They surround me like bees;
they
shall be extinguished like burning thorns;
by
the name of Jehovah/God I will surely cut them down.
13^^You
pressed me hard,
I
nearly fell;
But
Jehovah/God helped me.
{Verses
14-26 relate to the palm branches in Revelation 7:9}
{Recognition
of Israel's Future - Lyrics of a song}
14~~Jeh
{short for Jehovah}
is
my power and my song {logistical grace} . . .
and
He has become my salvation/deliverance {phase I - salvation}.
{The
2 Advents of Christ - 2nd Advent Mentioned First}
15~~The
sound of joyful shouting . . .
therefore
deliverance/salvation
is
in the tents of the righteous

The
'right hand of Jehovah/God' {Jesus Christ}

I will declare/narrate
the
works of Jeh {Jehovah/God - God the Father here}.

1) David - the human writer - in reversion recovery (was under the
sin unto death but David will survive),
2) Nation Israel anticipation their regeneration (will go under but
will
be revived), and

{Note: This is also a verse that gives the testimony of one who has faced death and lived.}
18~~
Jeh {Jehovah/God}
has
disciplined me {David/Israel/Jesus} severely . . .
but
He has not turned me/Me over to death.
{Note: Reference to:
1) David - referring to the 'Sin that terminates in Death',
2 Israel dead now under the 5th cycle of discipline until 2nd Advent of Christ, and
3) Jesus Christ on the cross received the discipline of the Lord for all our sins imputed to Him.}

This is the gate of Jehovah/God.
The

enter through it.
