NET Notes

¹sn Psalm 131. The psalmist affirms his humble dependence on the Lord and urges Israel to place its trust in God.

²sn The precise significance of this title, which appears in Pss 120-134, is unclear. Perhaps worshipers recited these psalms when they ascended the road to Jerusalem to celebrate annual religious festivals. For a discussion of their background see L. C. Allen, Psalms 101-150 (WBC), 219-21.

³tn Heb “and my eyes are not lifted up.”

⁴tn Heb “I do not walk in great things, and in things too marvelous for me.”
