Daily Bible Reading – March 2022: God’s Renewing Word of PrayerVoorbeeld

March 15 Introduction Today’s reading is a psalm attributed to David, written during his wars with the Arameans of northern Syria (see 2 Samuel 8:3-8, 13; 10:15-19; 1 Chronicles 18:3-11). Arameans is another name for the people of Syria, Israel’s traditional enemy to the northeast. The psalm suggests that the people of Israel have been defeated by a foreign nation, perhaps Edom (verse 9). The psalm concludes with an expression of trust in God.
