Psalm 35 C

Tommy Peeler · Carefully Examining the Text

Three main points that we make in this our third podcast on Psalm 35. 1. Jesus experienced the pain and suffering David spoke of on a level deeper than he ever did See vs. 7, 11, 12, 15 especially 2. Jesus did not curse because of this suffering but He called for a blessing instead This is not to criticize imprecatory prayers, but it is to say that is not what Jesus engaged in. Jesus took the curse upon Himself- Galatians 3:13/ Deuteronomy 21:22-23 Jesus called for mercy for those who tormented Him- Luke 23:34 3.

In the NT we find God's people calling down curses upon the wicked- I Cor. 16:22; Galatians 1:8-9; 5:12; Rev. 6:9-10. In the NT we find rejoicing at the fall of evil and wicked people- Rev. 18:20; 19:1-6 This is no

Psalm 35

Tommy Peeler · Carefully Examining the Text

Contend, O LORD, with those who contend with me. Fight against those who fight against me. In this Psalm David describes how he was mistreated, lied about, pursued by wicked people. Frequently through the Psalm David will affirm his innocence- vs. 7, 7, 11, 13-14, He calls on God to rescue him and to judge those who are mistreating him- vs. 3, 4-8, 26 He calls on God to bring the same kind of judgment upon the wicked that they are bringing upon him. We sometimes call this lex talionis. Lex talionis is literally law of the tooth. We used it to speak of how in God's justice the punishment often
