Psalms 134

Psalms 134:1-3

CXXXIV. Exhortation to the Nightly Service of Yahweh. Psalms 134:1 f. may be addressed by a band of pilgrims to Levites who were about to begin their nocturnal service. To them in response comes the priestly blessing of Psa 134:3.Psalms 134:2. Primitive men worshipped towards the place where their God dwelt. We have a survival of this custom here in the exhortation to lift up the hands to the Sanctuary.Psalms 134:3. read, “bless you.”
