• (vv. 65-72) Blessing secured for ruined man on the ground of sovereign grace. Man has been fully tested by the testimony of God, the mighty works of God, the governmental dealings of God, and the mercy of God; but all in vain. Man utterly ruins himself and forfeits every claim to blessing on the ground of carrying out his responsibilities. It is therefore made abundantly plain that if man is to be blessed, all must depend upon God. (“Psalms 78” by H. Smith)

Owning it to the Lord, they will learn that the restoration of Israel is only on account of the sovereign grace of God (see vs. 65-69). (“Book 3.” by B. Anstey)
