Psalm 50:18
“When thou sawest a thief, then thou consentedst with him, and hast been partaker with adulterers.”
KJV
Read in Psalm 50Meaning
Seeing a thief, the person consents to theft and associates with adulterers; covenant failure includes active approval or partnership in wrongdoing, not only direct commission.
Religious speech without obedience is exposed
Psalm 50 is a covenant-liturgy and wisdom-like judgment psalm in which God summons heaven and earth, rejects any idea that sacrifice feeds or obligates him, calls for thanksgiving and trust, and exposes the contradiction between reciting covenant words and practicing theft, sexual betrayal, deceit, and slander.
Read carefully
Seeing a thief, the person consents to theft and associates with adulterers; covenant failure includes active approval or partnership in wrongdoing, not only direct commission.
Reflection
Seeing a thief, the person consents to theft and associates with adulterers; covenant failure includes active approval or partnership in wrongdoing, not only direct commission.
