SteveN R. Guthrie | Read Psalm 137:1-6
Like Lamentations 1, Psalm 137 is a poem of lament arising from Israel’s captivity in Babylon. Lamentations 1 is written from the perspective of those left behind in Jerusalem. Psalm 137 is written from the perspective of those carried off into exile.
One reason for the tears of Psalm 137...
Lord, we weep over the brokenness and brutality of our world. May our tears spur us to pray all the more passionately: “Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven” (Matt. 6:10, kjv). Amen.
