- What is it that is requested in Psalms 28:1?
- Reference is made to “the pit”. Is this a “prison” or is it a reference to death — when one would appear to be without recourse?
- In Psalms 28:2, is there a question of God’s power or concern or, rather, a plea for being embraced by God’s concern?
- What is the definition of the wicked in Psalms 28:3 — does it deal with a specific action or, rather, with overall hypocrisy?
- Although Psalms 28:4 does not so state specifically, is this a plea for punishing those who have hurt/maligned/dealt wickedly with the speaker?
- What might the reason be for the shift from the first person to the third person in referring to God in Psalms 28:5?
- In Psalms 28:6-7 does it appear that the plea of the speaker has been granted?
- In Psalms 28:8-9 reference is made not to an individual but rather to “His anointed” and “Your very own people”. Does this shift the emphasis of the thankfulness from the individual to the entire people of Israel?
