Psalm 134

Psalm 134: Something to do

1. Learn the words that the priests used to bless God’s people. These words are in Numbers 6:24-26.

2. Peter wrote that all Christians are like the priests in Israel. They all have a special duty to praise God. Read his words in 1 Peter 2:9-10.

3. Read Ephesians chapter 1. Paul’s words in Ephesians 1:3 and Ephesians 1:16 may remind you of Psalm 134.

(Note: The last Songs of Ascent is Psalm 134. But the next two Psalms, Psalms 135 and 136, seem to have a relationship with Psalm 134. We explain this in the final part of our study.)
