Summary
Psalm 72 concludes Book Two of the Psalms with a majestic vision of a righteous King who rules with justice, compassion, and peace. While attributed to Solomon and prayed for the Davidic king, this psalm ultimately points beyond any earthly ruler to Jesus Christ, the true Son of David whose kingdom will never end. In this episode of Reading the Bible Daily with Dave, Dave Jenkins explains how Psalm 72 reveals the character of God's righteous King, the global scope of His reign, and the hope believers have in Christ's eternal kingdom. This psalm calls us to trust in the King who reigns with perfect righteousness, defends the needy, and will one day fill the earth with His glory.
