Guiding Questions: Psalms 43 - The Digital Home for Conservative Judaism

Guiding Questions: Psalms 43

Exploring Judaism

This is part of the Tanakh Yomi Project.

Does the lack of any introduction to Psalms 43 indicate that it may well be a continuation of Psalms 42?
Indeed, do Psalms 43:1-2 read as a direct continuation of Psalms 42?
In the final refrain — Psalms 43:3-5 — what is the concluding “mood” of the Psalmist; and has he been “healed/saved” or, while still “in trouble”, has he affirmed his hope and expectation that things will be better?
