The Bible OverBrew - Bible in a Yearنموونە
Week 29. Day 5. Psalms 100-106.
There is great hope in book 4. The people’s sin, and the exile that it resulted in, are not the last word.
Ps 100 and Ps 103 are particularly wonderful celebrations of God’s goodness to his people.
Ps 105-106
These two psalms tell the history of Israel. Notice the different emphases of the two retellings:
- Ps 105 emphasises God’s faithfulness
- Ps 106 emphasises the people’s sinfulness
But notice the hope in 106v44-48. In the past, when the people were suffering due to their sin, what did God do?
‘I’ve blown it. I’ve sinned too badly, and for too long. God could never take me back.’
How does book 4 of the psalms help if we are feeling these sorts of things?
NOTE: Days 1-5 of each week contain the scripture reading for that week. Day 6 has just the 'key chapters'. If you want a briefer version of this plan that still takes you through the whole Bible, you could just read the key chapters featured on day 6. Day 7 has the podcast video where we discuss the week's reading.
About this Plan
The Bible OverBrew is a friendly virtual book group, helping you read the Bible in big chunks, preferably with a mug of tea! Maybe you've tried to read through the Bible before, but gave up when it felt confusing or too intense? We are here to help you! We provide notes and questions to guide your reading, and note ‘key chapters’ if you don’t have time to read it all. In our podcast at the end of each week we draw out the key themes, and how it all points to Christ. We’d love you to join us!
