Psalms 127

Chapter 127

This Psalm, in the Chronological Bible, comes after 1Chron 29.

Solomon.

Only two stanzas.

1st, Unless the Lord builds the house, they labor in vain who build it.  Point is that man's efforts, without God, amount to nothing.


2022 - This verse, from Solomon!

2 It is in vain that you rise up early and go late to rest, eating the bread of anxious toil; for he gives to his beloved sleep. [Psa 127:2 ESV]

This ought to be on the visor of every "work" car in town, so that we could read it on the way in.  Elon has never read this verse.


2nd, Our children are a heritage from the Lord.  The more the better, essentially.  Catholics and Mormon's have this right."


2022 - This is yet another song of ascents.  I noticed that they are all quite short:

121 - 8 vss

122-9

123-4

124-8

125-5

126-6

127-5

128-6

129-8

130-8

131-3

132-18

133-3

134-3

I see no pattern.  How many steps are there at the temple?  Which of these do they memorize to say one on each step?  There are 94 verses here.
