BOOK FIVE: Psalms 107—150 Thanksgiving to the Lord for His Great Works of Deliverance

1 Oh, agive thanks to the Lord, for He is good!
For His1 mercy endures forever. 
2 Let the redeemed of the Lord say so,
Whom He has redeemed from the hand of the enemy,
3 And agathered out of the lands,
From the east and from the west,
From the north and from the south. 
4 They wandered in athe wilderness in a desolate way;
They found no city to dwell in. 
5 Hungry and thirsty,
Their soul fainted in them.
6 aThen they cried out to the Lord in their trouble,
And He delivered them out of their distresses. 
7 And He led them forth by the aright way,
That they might go to a city for a dwelling place. 
8 aOh, that men would give thanks to the Lord for His goodness,
And for His wonderful works to the children of men! 
9 For aHe satisfies the longing soul,
And fills the hungry soul with goodness. 
10 Those who asat in darkness and in the shadow of death,
bBound1 in affliction and irons—

Psalm 107:1-8

Let's go to Psalm 107. We're not going to expound very much here, but Psalm 107 is the first Psalm in the last book of Psalms. There are five books and this is the last of the books. It lays the groundwork for the Psalms that follow; it sets the pattern and the pattern of these last Psalms is end time. By the time we get to the end of four or five Psalms, Jesus Christ is clearly on earth, and the Psalms there are just filled with wonderful expressions of joy. The whole creation is rejoicing because of the return of Christ. But Psalms 107 lays the groundwork for what is going to come. It opens:

So there we have the background. This last book of Psalm concerns itself with end time events and the regathering of Israel. Now let's go to Psalm 108, because events are taking place in the midst of what Psalm 107 lays the groundwork for, and let's begin in verse 5.
