A Riddle of Grace (Psalm 78:1–72)
Psalm 78 is one of the longer psalms in this divine collection. But working through it is worth the labour. Its theme is God’s faithfulness in the face of man’s failures; specifically, it is about God’s faithfulness in response to His people’s failures, old covenant Israel. And yet for all of its perspicuity, there is a riddle in this psalm. The psalm helps us to see something of the marvellous grace of God as a means to stir us to goodness as a response to Him. We might put it this way: God’s faithfulness should convict us and motivate us to faithfulness. We will broadly examine this psalm under three main headings as we seek to unravel the riddle.
