    Psalm 58 - The Doom Of The Godless Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Jan 29, 2021
     | 3,960 views

    Psalm 58 is classified as an imprecatory psalm {1], chiefly because of the sixfold curse in verses 6-9. In it, David is calling for judgment, but not because of some personal wrong done to him. It is rather the failure of the rulers to administer justice, and the abuse of judicial power.
