David’s cursing of his enemies has always been a problem for the Christian. Jesus teaches us to turn the other cheek, and not seek revenge. How then are these Psalms of David to be understood in light of our Christian sensibilities? Next time, on The Bible Study Hour with Dr. James Boice we’ll be studying Psalm 109, the last of David’s Psalms of revenge, a psalm of which it’s been said, “in the awfulness of its curses, (it) surpasses anything of its kind.”
