Psalms 105
[Psalms 105:1] O GIVE THANKS UNTO THE LORD; CALL UPON HIS NAME: MAKE KNOWN HIS DEEDS AMONG THE PEOPLE.
CALL: in Hebrew "Kiru" from the root "KRA" meaning to call or to cry out. The English word "cry" probably derives from this word-root. Similarly the English word "call" comes from the Hebrew "kol" meaning "voice". The English "yell" comes froim the Hebrew "yalal".
The English "shout" could be derived from the Hebrew "shiva" which in noun form could be rendered "sha-out".
THE PEOPLE: In Hebrew "amim" in the plural, i.e. "peoples".
[Psalms 105:2] SING UNTO HIM, SING PSALMS UNTO HIM: TALK YE OF ALL HIS WONDROUS WORKS.
TALK YE: The wonders of the Almighty should be discussed and acknowledged in our conversation and every-day converse.
[Psalms 105:3] GLORY YE IN HIS HOLY NAME: LET THE HEART OF THEM REJOICE THAT SEEK THE LORD.
GLORY YE: The Name of God is the essence of God as HE makes HIMSELF known to us. Biblical knowledge, historical information, the ways of the world showing Divine Providence, even some Brit-Am studies are something to identify with and be proud of. Nothing is by chance. Certain things have been made known to you for a reason. The Almighty has chosen you for HIS own reasons. Be pleased about it and rejoice in it and keep searching to know the Almighty.
[Psalms 105:4] SEEK THE LORD, AND HIS STRENGTH: SEEK HIS FACE EVERMORE.
Seeking God gives us strength to go on and grow ever more.
[Psalms 105:5] REMEMBER HIS MARVELLOUS WORKS THAT HE HATH DONE; HIS WONDERS, AND THE JUDGMENTS OF HIS MOUTH;
[Psalms 105:6] O YE SEED OF ABRAHAM HIS SERVANT, YE CHILDREN OF JACOB HIS CHOSEN.
The Chosen People are the Israelites, the descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Both Judah and "Joseph" (i.e. the Lost Ten Tribes) comprise the Chosen People.

[Psalms 105:7] HE IS THE LORD OUR GOD: HIS JUDGMENTS ARE IN ALL THE EARTH.
There are laws in this world and God has established them.
[Psalms 105:8] HE HATH REMEMBERED HIS COVENANT FOR EVER, THE WORD WHICH HE COMMANDED TO A THOUSAND GENERATIONS.
[Psalms 105:9] WHICH COVENANT HE MADE WITH ABRAHAM, AND HIS OATH UNTO ISAAC;
[Psalms 105:10] AND CONFIRMED THE SAME UNTO JACOB FOR A LAW, AND TO ISRAEL FOR AN EVERLASTING COVENANT:
[Psalms 105:11] SAYING, UNTO THEE WILL I GIVE THE LAND OF CANAAN, THE LOT OF YOUR INHERITANCE:
The Land of Israel has been promised to the Children of Israel.
The land of Israel stretches from the Nile to the Euphrates and beyond.

[Psalms 105:12] WHEN THEY WERE BUT A FEW MEN IN NUMBER; YEA, VERY FEW, AND STRANGERS IN IT.
[Psalms 105:13] WHEN THEY WENT FROM ONE NATION TO ANOTHER, FROM ONE KINGDOM TO ANOTHER PEOPLE;
[Psalms 105:14] HE SUFFERED NO MAN TO DO THEM WRONG: YEA, HE REPROVED KINGS FOR THEIR SAKES;
[Psalms 105:15] SAYING, TOUCH NOT MINE ANOINTED, AND DO MY PROPHETS NO HARM.
This is referring to the peregrinations of the Patriarchs who moved through the land with their wives and children and herds going from one principality to another with the Almighty providing for them and watching over them. These journeyings are recounted in the Book of Genesis.
[Psalms 105:16] MOREOVER HE CALLED FOR A FAMINE UPON THE LAND: HE BRAKE THE WHOLE STAFF OF BREAD.
[Psalms 105:17] HE SENT A MAN BEFORE THEM, EVEN JOSEPH, WHO WAS SOLD FOR A SERVANT:
We heard from Rabbi Machles in Jerusalem that due to hatred amongst the brothers Joseph was sold for a slave. The result was that the whole Israelite family went down into Egypt where they were all eventually enslaved. All our subsequent Exiles were occasioned to a degree by fratricidal strife. That is why the Lost Ten Tribes turned away from the Truth of the Bible and were lost. That is also why Judah was later exiled and scattered. We need to find a rectification through brotherly love.
[Psalms 105:18] WHOSE FEET THEY HURT WITH FETTERS: HE WAS LAID IN IRON:
[Psalms 105:19] UNTIL THE TIME THAT HIS WORD CAME: THE WORD OF THE LORD TRIED HIM.
[Psalms 105:20] THE KING SENT AND LOOSED HIM; EVEN THE RULER OF THE PEOPLE, AND LET HIM GO FREE.
THE RULER OF THE PEOPLE: This should be translated as RULER OF PEOPLES. Joseph had the quality of ruling over other peoples and nations. This was an essential aspect of his inborn character and personage. This is what he passed on to his descendants but they need to recognize it, be aware of it and act upon it.

[Psalms 105:21] HE MADE HIM LORD OF HIS HOUSE, AND RULER OF ALL HIS SUBSTANCE:
[Psalms 105:22] TO BIND HIS PRINCES AT HIS PLEASURE; AND TEACH HIS SENATORS WISDOM.
[Psalms 105:23] ISRAEL ALSO CAME INTO EGYPT; AND JACOB SOJOURNED IN THE LAND OF HAM.
[Psalms 105:24] AND HE INCREASED HIS PEOPLE GREATLY; AND MADE THEM STRONGER THAN THEIR ENEMIES.
[Psalms 105:25] HE TURNED THEIR HEART TO HATE HIS PEOPLE, TO DEAL SUBTILLY WITH HIS SERVANTS.
Sometimes adversity and the antagonism of others is for our benefit to emphasize to us who we are and who are the others.
[Psalms 105:26] HE SENT MOSES HIS SERVANT; AND AARON WHOM HE HAD CHOSEN.
[Psalms 105:27] THEY SHEWED HIS SIGNS AMONG THEM, AND WONDERS IN THE LAND OF HAM.
[Psalms 105:28] HE SENT DARKNESS, AND MADE IT DARK; AND THEY REBELLED NOT AGAINST HIS WORD.
[Psalms 105:29] HE TURNED THEIR WATERS INTO BLOOD, AND SLEW THEIR FISH.
[Psalms 105:30] THEIR LAND BROUGHT FORTH FROGS IN ABUNDANCE, IN THE CHAMBERS OF THEIR KINGS.
[Psalms 105:31] HE SPAKE, AND THERE CAME DIVERS SORTS OF FLIES, AND LICE IN ALL THEIR COASTS.
[Psalms 105:32] HE GAVE THEM HAIL FOR RAIN, AND FLAMING FIRE IN THEIR LAND.
[Psalms 105:33] HE SMOTE THEIR VINES ALSO AND THEIR FIG TREES; AND BRAKE THE TREES OF THEIR COASTS.
[Psalms 105:34] HE SPAKE, AND THE LOCUSTS CAME, AND CATERPILLERS, AND THAT WITHOUT NUMBER,
[Psalms 105:35] AND DID EAT UP ALL THE HERBS IN THEIR LAND, AND DEVOURED THE FRUIT OF THEIR GROUND.
[Psalms 105:36] HE SMOTE ALSO ALL THE FIRSTBORN IN THEIR LAND, THE CHIEF OF ALL THEIR STRENGTH.
[Psalms 105:37] HE BROUGHT THEM FORTH ALSO WITH SILVER AND GOLD: AND THERE WAS NOT ONE FEEBLE PERSON AMONG THEIR TRIBES.
[Psalms 105:38] EGYPT WAS GLAD WHEN THEY DEPARTED: FOR THE FEAR OF THEM FELL UPON THEM.
These are all the plagues and the Coming out of Egypt.
The feast of Pesach (Passover) is approaching which celebrates this event.
[Psalms 105:39] HE SPREAD A CLOUD FOR A COVERING; AND FIRE TO GIVE LIGHT IN THE NIGHT.
[Psalms 105:40] THE PEOPLE ASKED, AND HE BROUGHT QUAILS, AND SATISFIED THEM WITH THE BREAD OF HEAVEN.
[Psalms 105:41] HE OPENED THE ROCK, AND THE WATERS GUSHED OUT; THEY RAN IN THE DRY PLACES LIKE A RIVER.
[Psalms 105:42] FOR HE REMEMBERED HIS HOLY PROMISE, AND ABRAHAM HIS SERVANT.
[Psalms 105:43] AND HE BROUGHT FORTH HIS PEOPLE WITH JOY, AND HIS CHOSEN WITH GLADNESS:
[Psalms 105:44] AND GAVE THEM THE LANDS OF THE HEATHEN: AND THEY INHERITED THE LABOUR OF THE PEOPLE;
The products of the earth to a large measure are at the service of the Lost Ten Tribes. They should use them well in accordance with the command of God.
[Psalms 105:45] THAT THEY MIGHT OBSERVE HIS STATUTES, AND KEEP HIS LAWS. PRAISE YE THE LORD.
The ultimate goal is the reunification of Judah and Joseph as explained in Ezekiel chapter 37 after which all of Israel will Keep the law.
