Penitential Psalms


Psalm 32 This is a Penitential Psalm. There are 7 of these [Psalm 6, 32, 38, 51, 102, 130, and 143]. Psalm 32 reveals, not a sinless person, but one whose sin is forgiven. There are 3 types of sin mentioned in this Psalm. Sin. Transgression. Iniquity. From "Today in the Word" [10162011] "Transgression is willful defiance against God by crossing the boundaries He sets for us. Iniquity is a distortion or gross injustice, an absence of respect for God’s will. The psalmist declares that blessed is the one who experiences God’s forgiveness of sin in all its manifestations."

NOTE: Today in the Word's theme for the month of October 2011 has been the Psalms.
