Role in This Section
Psalm 111:9: Within “Alphabetic praise for the LORD's works,” the line “He sent redemption unto his people” supplies one distinct parallel claim, image, address, or response.
Read It With
- Psalms 111:1–10
- Psalms 111:1–10
Read Psalm 111:9 with 111:1–10 and the whole of Psalm 111. Psalm 111:9 states or addresses a claim about divine character or action through “He sent redemption unto his people” inside this poetic voice. The acrostic-hymn form, parallel lines, voice, and Book V placement keep the selected line from becoming a contextless slogan.
Why It Needs Context
The line “He sent redemption unto his people” is a premise, image, address, response, or transition inside Psalms 111:1–10; its parallel neighbors and the movement titled “Alphabetic praise for the LORD's works” must supply the claim before teaching or application.
