Context Summary
Psalm 136:23–26 summarizes God's care for His people. The Lord rescued Israel (Exodus 12:41), empowered them against enemies (Numbers 21:23–25, 33–35), and continues to sustain all He has created (Genesis 1:1; Colossians 1:17). These are appropriate reasons to worship Him. Each statement comes before a repeated sentence which notes God's permanent, consistent love.
