Remember Your congregation The phrase "Remember Your congregation" calls upon God to recall His chosen people, Israel. The Hebrew word for "remember" is "זָכַר" (zakar), which implies not just a mental recollection but an active consideration that leads to action. In the context of the psalm, this is a plea for God to act on behalf of His people, who are in distress. Historically, the congregation refers to the assembly of Israel, God's covenant community. This plea is rooted in the covenantal relationship established between God and Israel, where God promised to be their God and they His people. The psalmist is invoking this covenant, urging God to act in accordance with His promises. which You purchased of old and redeemed as the tribe of Your inheritance Mount Zion, where You dwelled The word "congregation" here, as in the Mosaic books, presents the people in its religious aspect, as the expression "rod (or, tribe) of thine inheritance" presents it in its political character.

(Comp. Isaiah 63:17.)

Verse 2. - Remember thy congregation, which thou hast purchased of old; or, which thou didst purchase of old. The reference is to the redemption out of Egypt (see Exodus 15:16). God is besought, though he has forgotten, once more to remember his people, and urged to do so by the memory of his former mercies (comp. vers. 12-17). The rod of thine inheritance, which thou hast redeemed; rather, which thou didst redeem to be the tribe of thine inheritance; i.e. the people of thine inheritance. "The conventional expression, 'the tribes of Israel,' was not always used after the fall of the northern kingdom" (Cheyne); comp. Jeremiah 10:16; Jeremiah 51:19. This Mount Zion, wherein thou hast dwelt (comp. Psalm 73: 68). The expression, "this Mount Zion," implies that the psalm is composed either by one of the exiles before he is removed from the Holy Land, or by one of those who were left behind by the conquerors (2 Kings 25:12, 22; Jeremiah 42:10; Jeremiah 52:16).Parallel Commentaries ...
