hide text
In prayer the psalmist asked Yahweh who could have fellowship with Him. Abiding in the Lord's tent or sanctuary (i.e., the tabernacle David had pitched) and dwelling on His holy hill (i.e., Mt. Zion) picture a person who is the guest of God. Guests in the ancient Near East were those who had an intimate relationship with their host who had extended his protection and provisions to them (cf. 5:4).
