RR Psalm 53:7 Part 5

Shalom,

Psalm 53:7 Who will give salvation for Israel out of Zion? When God restores His captive people, let Jacob rejoice, let Israel be glad!

Today we end our study of Psalm 53 with the last verse.  Of course, as with all the Psalms, we end on an upbeat chorus of enthusiasm.  Even though we start with a question, the question itself is upbeat.  Psalm 53:7a Who will give salvation for Israel out of Zion?  The Hebrew for “salvation” is “Yeshuot.”  It is plural meaning literally “salvations.”  This is a poetic form for complete, total, once for all time SALVATION.

Let’s answer the question from Scripture.  Acts 4:12 There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved!”  The previous verse clearly specifies the NAME of YESHUA!  Therefore; the captive people (whom God has restored) rejoice and are glad.  They are the children of Jacob, also called ISRAEL.

And what is all the celebration about?  I’m glad you asked… Revelation 7:9  After these things I looked, and behold, a vast multitude that no one could count—from every nation and all tribes and peoples and tongues—was standing before the throne and before the Lamb. They were clothed in white robes, with palm branches in their hands 10 and crying out with a loud voice, saying, “Salvation belongs to our God, who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb!”  Now that you know, feel free to join in.  Shalom shalom.
