One of the things I absolutely love about the Psalms is the total honesty we find in them. Feelings are expressed. Doubts are articulated and really big questions are asked. That’s how this Psalm, Psalm 2 begins…
1. Why do the nations conspire
and the peoples plot in vain?
2. The kings of the earth rise up
and the rulers band together
against the Lord and against his anointed, saying,
3. “Let us break their chains
and throw off their shackles.”
