Listen "36. Yahweh’s Kingship in Psalm 24: A Deeper Understanding"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode of Wise Counsel, we unpack Psalm 24 not merely as a beautiful hymn, but as a bold theological polemic. Rooted in the ancient Near Eastern context, Psalm 24 directly challenges the claims of the Canaanite storm god Baal by asserting Yahweh’s unmatched kingship. Drawing on the insights of Dr. Michael Heiser and biblical scholars like Peter C. Craigie and Craig Keener, we explore how this psalm engages with the mythology of its time to make a timeless declaration: Yahweh alone is Creator and King. Understanding this context enriches our faith and reminds us that no rival can stand against the King of Glory.
