Psalms 146 Study & Commentary
Psalm 146 begins the final "Hallel" section. It warns against trusting in princes and praises God as the Creator who helps the oppressed, the hungry, and the blind.
CONTEMPORARY APPLICATIONS
1. Trust Not in Princes: Human leaders cannot save; their breath goes forth and their thoughts perish (v. 3-4). Our hope must be in the God of Jacob.2. God’s Advocacy: He executeth judgment for the oppressed and "openeth the eyes of the blind" (v. 7-8).
