“If one reads the whole Psalm ----you will see that it is all about God giving victory to the Righteous and destroying the wicked”
amen this you have said of this particular psalm , is the key to understanding the Bible plus consistent prayer for understanding of course.
Rather than plucking out a single verse if we read the whole chapter or whole prophecy or whole psalm it teaches us what the individual verses are saying
And even more once we do that part and begin understanding the prophecies and psalms as a whole they start to witness the gospel and the single verses like these for other examples
“
My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? why art thou so far from helping me, and from the words of my roaring? …….But
I am a worm, and no man; a reproach of men, and despised of the people.
All they that see me laugh me to scorn: they shoot out the lip, they shake the head, saying, He trusted on the Lord that he would deliver him: let him deliver him, seeing he delighted in him.
For dogs have compassed me: the assembly of the wicked have inclosed me:
they pierced my hands and my feet. I may tell all my bones: they look and stare upon me. They part my garments among them, and cast lots upon my vesture.”
Psalm 22:1, 6-8, 16-18 KJV
Or this for another prophets example
“But
he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.
All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and
the Lord hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.”
Isaiah 53:5-6 KJV
make better sense and have more clear meaning to the one who’s hearing the gospel . The law and prophets explain a lot of the meaning behind what the New Testament says when we learn the gospel .
Then later after we start seeing what’s really there we see it being fulfilled in the gospel so this then makes better sense afterwards in the epistles when we realize the prophets and psalms were preaching beforehand , the same things and the apostles afterwards preached the same gospel after it was fulfilled by Jesus
“Who
his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness:
by whose stripes ye were healed. For ye were as sheep going astray;
but are now returned unto the Shepherd and Bishop of your souls.”
1 Peter 2:24-25 KJV
Scripture is very progressive and depends upon the foundation of prior foundations of the prophets and law understanding everything is about Jesus and the gospel witnessing to us that he is the one to hear and follow and believe in .
