Psalms 114 is a poem of high quality, as are many of the psalms we have been studying. This short one attracts our close attention. Why is God not named early in the psalm? Is it not because the hearts of these saints will be full of His praise, and He so much the subject of conversation among them, that the personal pronoun as in verse 2 is appropriate?
What hath God wrought? will be the theme of His earthly saints, as well as of His heavenly people, eternally. In Psalm 114, redeemed Israel looks back over the centuries to God’s power and goodness exercised in the exodus from Egypt’s land of slavery to Canaan’s land of liberty and blessing. The redemption yet to be wrought for Israel will be eternal in value, for then all will know Jehovah; all Israel will be twice-born souls at the beginning of the millennium.
