Summer of Psalms 2022 (Part 4)Psalm 51// David’s confession of his sin has driven him to ask God to deal with his sin. He asks God to be “cleansed" or "purged” of his sin, and the Hebrew word for purge literally means to “de-sin.” David doesn't want to just forget about his sin - he wants every mark of sin to be removed. He asks for his iniquity to be blotted out, as if to remove writing from a book, and he asks to be cleansed with "hyssop", the same plant the Lord prescribed for use in the Passover. David was confident of the forgiveness of the same God who confronted him with his sin, and the hope and confidence David had in the shadow of the Passover we can now have because of the finished work of the final Passover sacrifice, Jesus Christ!
