Guiding Questions: Psalms 114

This is part of the Tanakh Yomi Project.

  1. According to the Psalmist, when the Exodus from Egypt took place which of the tribes were singled out for particular preference?
  2. To what event in the Torah does Psalms 114:3 make reference?
  3. Is Psalms 114:4 to be taken literally or meant to indicate that nature, in sum, was responsive to Divinity?
  4. And, in Psalms 114:7 the “Master” of the earth (or of all creation) is equated with what other authority?
  5. In Psalms 114:8, to what experience in the Torah does this refer — and which personality related to it is not mentioned?
