A word list at the end explains words with a *star by them.
Last part: Psalm 122 as poetry
1. Compare Psalm 122 with Psalm 2. Psalm 2 is about Messiah’s judgements against wicked rulers. In the original language, the word ‘Messiah’ is at the end of Psalm 2:2. (‘Messiah’ means the king whom God appoints to save his people.)
2. Read Revelation 20:1-6. This passage describes Christ’s rule. Remember that ‘Messiah’ and ‘Christ’ are the same word in different languages.
3. Read the description of the New Jerusalem in Revelation chapter 21. Many Christians believe that this description is about a later period of time than Revelation 20:1-6. In Revelation chapter 21, God’s plans for everything (including Jerusalem, earth and heaven) are complete and final.
