Psalm 83 is unique in that it is the last of the “Elohist” psalms -w chi are psalms which make predominate use of Elohim as God’s name. It is also the final known composition of Asaph in this books of Psalms and is almost certainly a prediction which is still yet to come since all of the conditions have never yet been met.

Psalm 84 is a beautiful and fantasticly written psalm from the sons of Korah. As imagry based examples it utilizes the 3 Jewish pilgrim feasts as a pattern for the life journey of all God’s committed covenant people. The analogies equally fit and are relevant to both those who were under old covenant in Judaism and those under the New in Christianity.

Finally chapter 85 is a 4 part psalm which begins with recalling God’s faithfulness to unfaithful Israel in past generations.

It then rhetorically asks if God will forget to be merciful to the unfaithful generation at hand.

It then moves into a declaration of faith and hope in God being true to His merciful nature and the writers commitment to surrender obedience in faith to Him.

It ends with a prediction of God’s amazing kindness which will be realized in the Millennial Kingdom.
