 RRB notes: Psalm 105


Psalms 105 KJV


1. O give thanks unto the LORD; call upon his name: make known his deeds [a] among the people.


[a] “His deeds” in this chapter are God’s dealings with Jews from Gen. 12:6 to Josh. 9:27, 11:23.


2. Sing unto him, sing psalms unto him: talk ye of all his wondrous works.


3. Glory ye in his holy name: let the heart of them rejoice that seek the LORD.


4. Seek the LORD, and his strength: seek his face evermore.


5. Remember his marvellous works that he hath done; his wonders, and the judgments of his mouth;


6. O ye seed of Abraham his servant, ye children of Jacob his chosen.


7. He is the LORD our God: his judgments are in all the earth.


8. He hath remembered his covenant for ever, the word which he commanded to a thousand generations. [1]


[1] Larkin takes it literally, and by making a generation 33 years (the length of Christ’s life), Larkin has a 33,000-year period following the White Throne Judgment, before Eternity begins.


9. Which covenant he made with Abraham, and his oath unto Isaac;


10. And confirmed the same unto Jacob for a law, and to Israel for an everlasting covenant: [2]


[2] The “covenant” discussed in verses 9-11 is a real-estate deal over a piece of property (see notes on Exod. 3:5 and Gen. 15:18). God Almighty made that agreement with a Bedouin sheep herder from Ur of the Chaldees (see note on Gen. 15:12). It was passed on to one son: Isaac; Ishmael was not included in that covenant. Isaac passed it on to only one of his sons: Jacob; the Jordanians from Esau have no claim to that covenant. But when Jacob passes on the covenant, he confirms it to all twelve of his sons and their families that make up the nation of Israel (Num. 23:9-10, 21:23, 23:2-9). The covenant was never given to any Arab or Moslem at all. It has nothing to do with any “spiritual Jew” (Rom. 2:29), “the Israel of God” (Gal. 6:16), Isaac as a type of Christ (Gal. 3:16), or the Christian (Gal. 4:28).

God’s final controversy with man is over the promise He made with Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and the twelve tribes (Isa. 60:11-12; Rev. 6:4, 8, 9:13-21, 14:14-20, 16:13-16, 19:11-21; Jer. 25:15-33; Ezek. 38-39, etc.). The United Nations has decreed that the Jews don’t get “Canaan.” The name of the land is to be changed to Palestine, and it is to be given to Mohammed and the Moslems. But the covenant God made with Israel is “an everlasting covenant”: it has no end. That ancient oath will rid the world of all 190 (+/-) nations along with all their religions and social and economic setups, and their remnants will serve Israel (Deut. 15:6; Isa. 14:2).


11. Saying, Unto thee will I give the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance:


12. When they were but a few men in number; yea, very few, and strangers in it.


13. When they went from one nation to another, from one kingdom to another people;


14. He suffered no man to do them wrong: yea, he reproved kings for their sakes;


15. Saying, Touch not mine anointed, and do my prophets no harm. [3]


[3] This verse is often used by Baptist pastors who major in “pastoral authority” to protect their own hides. They ignore the fact that every Christian is “anointed” (1 John 2:27). Someone seems to have forgotten that all through the Old Testament (and to this day), God’s prophets have been slaughtered like flies (Matt. 21:33-38, 23:33-35; Heb. 11:32-38). God’s prophets are not “sacred cows.” They can be killed, imprisoned, and tortured (see Foxe’s Book of Martyrs).


16. Moreover he called for a famine upon the land: he brake the whole staff of bread.


17. He sent a man before them, even Joseph, who was sold for a servant:


18. Whose feet they hurt with fetters: he was laid in iron:


19. Until the time that his word came: the word of the LORD tried him. [b]


[b] The “word” tries the saints just as the saints try the “word” (Psa. 12:6).


20. The king sent and loosed him; [c] even the ruler of the people, and let him go free.


[c] Gen. 41:14.


21. He made him lord of his house, and ruler of all his substance: [d]


[d] Gen. 41:39-44.


22. To bind his princes at his pleasure; and teach his senators wisdom.


23. Israel also came into Egypt; and Jacob sojourned in the land of Ham. [e]


[e] Gen. 46:1-28, 47:11.


24. And he increased his people greatly; and made them stronger than their enemies.


25. He turned their heart to hate his people, to deal subtilly with his servants.


26. He sent Moses his servant; and Aaron whom he had chosen.


27. They shewed his signs among them, and wonders in the land of Ham.


28. He sent darkness, and made it dark; and they rebelled not against his word.


29. He turned their waters into blood, and slew their fish.


30. Their land brought forth frogs in abundance, in the chambers of their kings.


31. He spake, and there came divers sorts of flies, and lice in all their coasts.


32. He gave them hail for rain, and flaming fire in their land.


33. He smote their vines also and their fig trees; and brake the trees of their coasts.


34. He spake, and the locusts came, and caterpillers, and that without number,


35. And did eat up all the herbs in their land, and devoured the fruit of their ground.


36. He smote also all the firstborn in their land, the chief of all their strength.


37. He brought them forth also with silver and gold: [f] and there was not one feeble person among their tribes.


[f] Exod. 12:35-36.


38. Egypt was glad when they departed: for the fear of them fell upon them.


39. He spread a cloud for a covering; and fire to give light in the night.


40. The people asked, and he brought quails, and satisfied them with the bread of heaven.


41. He opened the rock, and the waters gushed out; they ran in the dry places like a river.


42. For he remembered his holy promise, and Abraham his servant.


43. And he brought forth his people with joy, and his chosen with gladness:


44. And gave them the lands of the heathen: and they inherited the labour of the people; [g]


[g] Num. 21; Josh. 6-11.


45. That they might observe his statutes, and keep his laws. Praise ye the LORD.

Notes on Exodus 3:5 KJV


And he said, Draw not nigh hither: put off thy shoes from off thy feet, for the place whereon thou standest is holy ground. [2]


[2] One of the most horrendous passages in the entire Bible, for this is the first time the word “holy” occurs in the Bible (קֹדֶשׁ). Along with it is the first mention of God calling Israel “my people” (vs. 7) and the first sign, “for the Jews require a sign” (vs. 3 cf. 1 Cor. 1:22). The passage is so loaded we cannot list the verses here.

The first thing that God called “holy” was the thing that He had cursed: “the ground” (Gen. 3:17). This ground is said to be “holy” wherever the ark crossed it (2 Chron. 8:11). The ark originated very near the place where Moses was standing. That is where the ark was made (Exod. 32:28). This means that since the ark went through forty years in the Sinaitic Peninsula, and then stopped, crossed the river, and landed in Jerusalem after attending Joshua’s battle campaigns for twenty years (Josh. 3:3-6), there will be more than two hundred million casualties in that area (Rev. 9:13-19, 16:12-16, 19:11-21).

This is where the “peacekeeping” armies of the United Nations and their “peace process” will be destroyed and wiped out. A few of the cross references are Psalm 60:12; Joel 3; Jeremiah 25; Isaiah 34, 11:4, 14-15, 2:12-21; Psalm 68; Jeremiah 30; Isaiah 63:1-6, the book of Obadiah, Haggai 2:22; Malachi 4; Zephaniah 3:6-8; and two dozen other places.

See Zechariah 14:3-21, Joel 3:2, Zechariah 12:2-9, Psalm 68:9, and Leviticus 25:23; and learn that not one foot of Palestine belongs to the UN or any Moslem or Catholic on this planet.

Notes on Genesis 15:18 KJV


In the same day the LORD made a covenant with Abram, saying, Unto thy seed have I given this land, from the river of Egypt unto the great river, the river Euphrates: [7] [g]


[7] This is the extent of the land that God promises to the sons of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. This is what originally was “Eden” (see Exod. 23:28-31). Eden covered from Mt. Ararat to the Nile and back to the Persian Gulf and up the Persian Gulf to Ararat, making a pyramid (see App. 93). It would be 300 thousand square miles – two and a half times the size of Ireland, Scotland, and England combined (see Zech. 10:10).

This means, historically and Biblically, that the terror, now placed on the shoulders of the UN members meeting in downtown New York, is that the twelve tribes of Israel (the Jews) own all of Transjordan in northern Arabia for about sixty miles. They also own all the Golan Heights, Lebanon, Lake Meron, all of Galilee, and the first branch of the Nile River in Egypt (according to Josh. 15:4), which would include the Siniatic Peninsula. Eventually this goes clear to “the great river . . . Euphrates” (Deut. 1:7). So this is where David goes to set the bounds of “Palestine” as God intended for them to be set up (see Deut. 11:24, 1:7; Josh. 1:4; 2 Sam. 8:3). See Appendix 63.

The UN will not obey God or pay any attention to THE BIBLE. So they will pay the price which Paul says they will pay in the New Testament (Rom. 11:21-22). They will be cut off by the Author of the Holy Bible, and “Allah” will have no more to do with it than Mickey Mouse or Donald Duck.


[g] 2 Chron. 9:26; 1 Kings 4:21, 24.

Note on Genesis 15:12 KJV


And when the sun was going down, a deep sleep fell upon Abram; [6] and, lo, an horror of great darkness fell upon him.


[6] One of the greatest verses in the entire Bible, because it determines the final condition of the UN (191 +/- nations), with their countries being wiped out and destroyed, according to Zephaniah 3:8 and Jeremiah 30:11. The verse said this “everlasting covenant” (Psa. 105:10) was made when Abraham was sound asleep and could not respond to it in any way, shape, or form. This means God’s real estate deal (that concerns “Palestinians,” the Roman Catholic Church, and the UN) is absolutely certain to take place, no matter what happens in the New Testament or Old Testament later. The Jews accepting or rejecting “the Messiah” had nothing to do with this covenant.

This covenant has no conditions. Neither Abraham nor his seed had to do anything to put the covenant into effect (see Exod. 13:11) under grace, before the Law was given.
