Psalm 99
Chapter Summary
Praise for God’s Holiness
This deeply reverent psalm could be used as a doxology. Perhaps it was. It exalts and praises God, and then gives a brief overview of His holy, lawgiving presence in Israel’s past. There is an interesting combination of justice and mercy in verse 8. What do you think about it?
