Guiding Questions: Psalms 3

This is part of the Tanakh Yomi Project.

  1. When was this psalm composed, according to the introduction?
  2. Do Psalms 3:2-3 indicate one who is secure or “in danger”?
  3. In what does the speaker have every confidence?
  4. The word “mageyn” may be translated either as sovereign or as shield; which would be most applicable in Psalms 3:4?
  5. Would Psalms 3:6 indicate confidence and security?
  6. According to Psalms 3:9, from whence cometh salvation and protection — human resources or other?
