The Lord Will

Psalm 90:7

β€œFor we are consumed by thine anger, and by thy wrath are we troubled.”

KJV

Read in Psalm 90

Meaning

Within β€œSin, wrath, and accountability,” verse 7 acknowledges life under divine anger, moving the psalm from mortality in general to moral accountability; this detail advances the unit's argument and should not be detached from the whole psalm.

Read carefully

Read Psalm 90:7 inside its literary unit and the movement of Psalm 90; its imagery and claims are constrained by that context.

Reflection

Respond to the verse's specific emphasis β€” acknowledges life under divine anger, moving the psalm from mortality in general to moral accountability β€” while reading it together with the surrounding lines of Psalm 90.
