Psalm 130
1. The psalmist professes his hope in prayer
5. And his patience in hope
7. He exhorts Israel to trust in God














O Israel
The phrase "O Israel" serves as a direct address to the nation of Israel, God's chosen people. In the Hebrew text, "Israel" is derived from "Yisra'el," which means "God prevails" or "he who struggles with God." This name was given to Jacob after wrestling with God, symbolizing the enduring relationship and covenant between God and His people. Historically, Israel represents not just a nation but a spiritual community called to embody God's laws and promises. This call to Israel is a reminder of their identity and the special relationship they have with God, urging them to respond in faith and obedience.

put your hope
The phrase "put your hope" is a call to trust and expect confidently. The Hebrew word for "hope" is "yachal," which implies waiting with expectation and trust. In the biblical context, hope is not a passive wish but an active, confident expectation of God's faithfulness and deliverance. This hope is rooted in the character of God, who has proven Himself faithful throughout Israel's history. It is a call to rely on God's promises and His ability to fulfill them, even in times of distress or uncertainty.

in the LORD
"In the LORD" specifies the object of Israel's hope. The term "LORD" in all capital letters represents the divine name "Yahweh," the covenant name of God revealed to Moses. This name signifies God's eternal, self-existent nature and His faithfulness to His promises. By placing hope in Yahweh, Israel is reminded of God's unchanging nature and His commitment to His people. It is a call to trust in God's sovereignty, goodness, and covenantal love, which have been demonstrated throughout their history.

for with the LORD
The phrase "for with the LORD" introduces the reason for placing hope in God. It emphasizes the relationship and proximity of God to His people. The preposition "with" suggests that what follows is inherently part of God's nature and character. It reassures the believer that God is not distant or detached but actively involved in the lives of His people, offering them His attributes and blessings.

is loving devotion
"Loving devotion" is translated from the Hebrew word "chesed," a rich term that encompasses love, mercy, kindness, and faithfulness. It is a covenantal term that describes God's steadfast love and loyalty to His people. This loving devotion is not based on Israel's merit but on God's character and promises. It is a reminder of God's unwavering commitment to His people, providing them with assurance and comfort in His unchanging love.

and with Him
The repetition of "with Him" reinforces the idea that what is being described is intrinsic to God's nature. It emphasizes that the following attribute is also found in God, highlighting His sufficiency and the completeness of His provision for His people.

is redemption in abundance
"Redemption in abundance" speaks to the vastness and sufficiency of God's deliverance. The Hebrew word for "redemption" is "pedut," which refers to the act of freeing or rescuing someone from bondage or danger. In the biblical context, it often refers to God's deliverance of Israel from slavery in Egypt, symbolizing spiritual liberation. The term "in abundance" underscores the limitless nature of God's redemptive power. It assures Israel that God's ability to save and restore is not limited or scarce but overflowing and more than sufficient to meet their needs. This abundant redemption points ultimately to the work of Christ, who provides complete and eternal salvation for all who trust in Him.

(7) Let Israel.--Rather (as in Prayer-Book), Hope Israel in Jehovah. It is the watchword of faith addressed to the nation. (Comp. Psalm 131:3 for a rarer form of it.)

Verse 7. - Let Israel hope in the Lord; or, "O Israel, hope in the Lord;" i.e. continue to hope, even though in the "depths" of calamity (see ver. 1). For with the Lord there is mercy (see above, ver. 4, and the comment ad loc). And with him is plenteous redemption (comp. Psalm 111:9). Enough and to spare for all (see Isaiah 55:1).
