I had a misconception about the Psalms
before I started actually reading them,
which is I think a lot of people, when
you think Psalms, you think hallelujah.
That's what a lot of people think. Yeah.
Which is not false, but it's probably
like 5% of the book that's that's
hallelujah. And most of it is actually
some pretty dark, heavy stuff. And they
King David is in these like really
intense situations. He's surrounded by
enemies, you know, on his last available
options. And
>> Basically incredibly relatable.
Incredibly relatable and also the themes
are very similar to what you see in like
gangster rap a lot of times. These
people are also often in desperate
situations. It's tough times. And the
big difference, the big like hitish of
King David is in most gangster rap,
what's the solution? It's like, "But I'm
going to kill you. I'm tough and I'm
going to get through it because I'm like
powerful." And King David's his answer
is always like, "But God's going to save
me."
