But amidst its chorus of failure and pain interweaves a melody of God's grace and lovingkindness. But the climax of this psalm is its reference to how the Holy One of Israel was wounded, using a unique Hebrew word that points directly at the cross. Join us in our study of this sad, majestic, yet beautiful and victorious psalm of God's faithful devotion to His people.
