What does Psalm 107:28 mean?
Please see our chapter commentary on Psalm 107, verse-level content coming soon!Psalm 107:23–32 mentions those the Lord rescued when in trouble at sea. Few situations are as helpless and hopeless as being caught in a boat being thrashed in stormy seas. Yet there are those whom God rescued when they cried out for help. As with other examples from this psalm, such people ought to worship God in gratitude.
Those whom God has rescued from trouble should worship Him for their salvation. The Lord's intervention has saved people from harsh environments, imprisonment, dangers of travel, famine, and oppression. Seeing those rescues should lead people to appreciate God's deep and loyal love.
