Jesus loved the Psalter and often used it to defend his messiahship or to give voice to his pain\u2026. The apostles and New Testament authors, too, read the Psalms as supplying the laments, thanksgivings, and praises first of the Christ and then of all finding refuge in him. They saw Jesus\u2019 substitutionary death at the cross as the culmination of the nations\u2019 and peoples\u2019 rage against YHWH and his anointed king (Ps. 2:1\u20132; Acts 4:25\u201328). They believed that the Psalter predicted the cross\u2019s graphic horror, the taunting of the crowds, the dryness of Christ&#8217;s mouth, the preservation of his bones, Judas&#8217;s death (Acts 1:16, 20), and Jesus\u2019 greeting of his \u201cbrothers\u201d after his resurrection.They also believe that Jesus\u2019 bodily resurrection fulfilled the prophetic predictions that YHWH would preserve the anointed king&#8217;s body through death and would exalt him as his royal \u201cbegotten son\u201d (see Acts 13:32\u201333). In the end, Jesus and those identified with him will use \u201ca rod of iron\u201d to break the rebellious, plotting people (Ps. 2:9).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><br style=\"font-weight: 400;\" \/><\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"give_campaign_id":0,"_seopress_robots_primary_cat":"","_seopress_titles_title":"","_seopress_titles_desc":"","_seopress_robots_index":"","_crdt_document":""},"class_list":["post-4586","reading-plan","type-reading-plan","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/handstotheplow.org\/om\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/reading-plan\/4586","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/handstotheplow.org\/om\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/reading-plan"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/handstotheplow.org\/om\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/reading-plan"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/handstotheplow.org\/om\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4586"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
