Psalms 78

Psalm 78, a maskil of Asaph, recounts Israel's history from YHWH's miracles in Egypt—plagues, Red Sea crossing, wilderness provisions of manna, quail, and water—despite their repeated rebellion, unbelief, and testing of God, leading to His anger, judgments like plagues and wilderness death, yet tempered by mercy.[1][2] It continues with YHWH's conquest of Canaan, settlement of tribes, their idolatry provoking jealousy, abandonment of Shiloh, and deliverance through David, urging faithfulness to avoid repeating history.[1][3]
