Guiding Questions: Psalms 124 - The Digital Home for Conservative Judaism

Guiding Questions: Psalms 124

Exploring Judaism

This is part of the Tanakh Yomi Project.

If God were not “with us” (Psalms 124:1-2) what would have occurred?
And, by whom/what?
Why, then, is God thanked in Psalms 124:6?
To what is the soul/life of the Psalmist compared in Psalms 124:7?
Is it the God of Israel and/or the universal God who is thanked — or both (or is there any difference in this particular Psalm)?
