What Does Psalms 111:3 Mean?



Psalm 111:3

"His righteousness" is the way He does things and when He does them.

Psalm 111:1-10

It is important to understand when researchers feel this psalm was written: sometime after the Jews returned from their exile in Babylon. In other words, during the time of Nehemiah and Ezra or perhaps shortly thereafter. We should imagine a scribe (someone like Ezra) writing this psalm, extolling how God once again redeemed His people from slavery, brought them back to their land, and supplied their every need.
