Episode 37: The whole truth (part 1)
If our life story was to be told in front of others, would we want the whole truth to be told? Probably not. But the psalmists knew that the story of God’s faithfulness would not be complete without the story of the human response on the other side of the covenant relationship. Though Psalm 106 begins and ends with a “Hallelujah,” it is an honest confession of the people’s faithless sin. The psalm may have been written during or after the Babylonian exile, when the people’s failure could not be denied.
