- How does this Psalm continue the refrain of the immediately preceding passages?
- In Psalms 98:3, if the first passage were to be re-pointed in the Hebrew and read “remember God’s love and fidelity, O house of Israel”, would that scan with the second part of the passage?
- Is the tenor of Psalms 98:4-6 that God is to be approached with temerity, with awe and with fear or, rather, in some other mood?
- And, in Psalms 98:9, what is the usual concluding refrain as to the nature of God’s dominion in terms of its characteristic for humanity?
