Role in This Section

Psalm 105:13: Within “Remember covenant acts from Abraham to exodus: Covenant with the ancestors,” the line “When they went from one nation to another, from one kingdom…” supplies one distinct parallel claim, image, address, or response.

Read It With

  • Psalms 105:7–15
  • Psalms 105:1–45

Read Psalms 105:13 with 105:7–15 and 105:1–45. Read alone, “When they went from one nation to another, from one kingdom to…” could lose the communal voice, the parallel line or movement it develops, and the psalm's outcome. The complete movement establishes: Within Psalms 105:7–15, the communal voice carries the movement “Covenant with the ancestors” as part of “Remember covenant acts from Abraham to exodus.” Its historical-hymn form and poetic parallelism hold the petitions, images, memories, or praise together before any single line is applied.
