PSALM CONSTRUCTION
Wiersbe’s Expository Outlines on the Old Testament Psalms 22, 23, and 24
Jewish tradition says that this psalm was written to commemorate David’s returning the ark to Jerusalem (1 Chron. 13–15). It was probably sung by different choirs and soloists, each answering the other. The choir would sing vv. 1–2, a voice would respond with v. 3, and then another voice would answer with v. 4. Then the chorus would sing vv. 5–6. As the people entered the gates of the city, the chorus would sing out vv. 8–9, and the voice would ask again, “Who is this king of glory?” Then the entire group would shout, “The Lord of hosts! He is the king of glory!” What a wonderful spectacle it must have been!
